Vezo literally means ''Fishing people'', The Vezo people are often referred to as Vezo-Sakalava. They are not an individual tribe, they can be seen as a clan of the [[Sakalava]]. Their home is the southwestern coast of Madagascar, reaching from [[Morondava]] in the west to [[Faux Cap]] in the south. [[Morombe]] is the Vezo capital, a small city between [[Toliara]] (Tulear) and [[Morondava]].

The Vezo are skilled fishermen and excellent boatmen. Their colourfull canoes are related to the Malayo-Polynesian canoe. The Vezo canoe is actually a hollowed tree trunk with one outrigger pole and a small rectangular sail.

Vezo people are also noted for their tombs. The graves are dug into the sand in a hidden place, with a wooden fence erected around it. The main four poles are decorated with wooden carved figured, some of which are even erotic.
