Anakao is a very small Vezo village situated on a long stretched beach about 40km south of Tulear, in the south of Madagascar. Due to the bad road condition, this remote fishing village is best reached by boat from Tulear. A few tiny basic hotels along the coastline are the main highlights of the village. Early in the morning countless pirogues leave direction open ocean for fishing and return with their catch in the afternoon. Behind the village are some tombs, decorated with oars/rudders or zebu horns in memory of the deceased. South of the village fragments of eggshells of the world's largest bird, the '''[[Aepyornis''']], can be found (it is illegal to take them out of the country).
3 islets The small islands of [[Nosy Ve]] and [[Nosy Satrana]] are located just outside of Anakao.
