There is a domestic airport served with regular flights by [[Air Madagascar]].
As the population has grown in the area the forests have also
been gradually cut down, except the baobab trees which the
locals preserved for religious reasons. However, deforestation continues in large areas of the region
including some of the remaining baobabs to make way for sugar cane
plantations.
Nearby attractions include Tsingy de Bemaraha (150 km north),
[[Kirindy Forest]] (40km northeast) and the [[Baobab Avenue]] (15km east).
