Black Lemur Camp is an eco-lodge located in the Andrafiamena protected area, 100 kilometres south of Diego Suarez. The camp, which opened in 2015, is based on the concept of sustainable tourism by supporting a major reforestation initiative in the area as well as employing locals from the nearby villages.

The 13 wooden, palm thatched bungalows are built on stilts and can be adjusted as single, double or family bungalows according to the number of guests. From almost all the rooms guests have great views onto the Andrafiamena valley with the Ambotonganana hill and Montagne d'Ambre (Ambre Mountain) in the background. The bungalows are separated by trees from each other and are solar powered, have a large bathroom with hot and cold water and an open terrace.

The restaurant offers a fixed menu using mainly seasonal ingredients. The bar has a wide selection of rhum arrangée. After a walk through the forest, guests can relax in the cosy chairs of the restaurant terrace, enjoy the view onto the valley and listen to the sounds of birds and lemurs, maybe combined with a drink before lunch or dinner.
