Antsohihy

Antsohihy lies in the Loza river country of northwestern Madagascar. Waterways descend towards a broad estuary and bay opening onto the Mozambique Channel, their banks fringed by mangrove forest. The Sakalava of Boina are among the communities associated with the Loza. Canoes travel along the river and through its tidal reaches, linking settlements in a landscape where fresh water, mudflats and the sea meet.
