Manambato

Manambato is a river of Madagascar's southeastern coastal country, north of Fort Dauphin. The streams of this coast descend from the island's eastern highlands toward the Indian Ocean, crossing a landscape of forests, sandy dunes and lagoons. Near Fort Dauphin the mountains approach the sea, narrowing the coastal strip. Manambato is one of several rivers that break the route along this shore, each cutting its own passage through the low ground.
