The town has a stunning beach but sometimes with huge and dangerous waves. North of town there is a very beautiful beach which is usually safer for swimming. Every Sunday there is a big beach party. Watch for the ''Nephila'' spiders in the trees! Possible nearby excursions include a [[taxi-brousse]] drive to [[Nosiarina]] and from thereon a 5-hour boat ride by [[pirogue]] up-river to [[Amboahangibe]]. Alternatively, catch a lift with one of the cargo boats used to transport vanilla pickers during the harvest season. [[Marojejy National Park]] can also be reached by road from Sambava.
