'''Ankify is a harbour and small village in the northwest of Madagascar. Ferries leave from the jetty to the islands of [[Nosy Be]] (30 minutes by speed boat) and [[Nosy Komba]]. Over the last few years, the harbour has been modernised and now has a shaded market for fruits and souvenirs, surrounded by many small restaurants.'''

The prices for transfer between Nosy Be and Ankify range between 11,000 and 20,000 Ariary (2024). The 11,000 Ariary ''Vedette Bac'' which may be a large steel vessel also carrying cars or a smaller wooden boat with only passengers takes 1.5 or 2 hours. The 15,000 Ariary ''Catamaran'' is a faster boat while the 20,000 ''Coque Rapid'' shared speed boat for up to 20 people is the fastest option.

Nearby Ankify direction west are a few hotels along a beautiful stretch of coastline. The district capital [[Ambanja]] is located 22 kilometres from Ankify. The once-bad road connecting Ankify with Ambanja has been was tarred in 2011 and pretty much unmaintained since so here , partly gravel and there partly asphalt mined with potholes that will slow down the ride.
