Travel Recommendation Rate:
February is actually not a very good month to plan a visit here, since the roads to the iconic Tsingy De Bemaraha National Park are temporarily shut down. There are some good alternatives for you:
1. Take Pictures on Avenue of the Baobabs
Avenue of the Baobabs is the most iconic spot in Morondava and you should not miss it whenever you come. If you come in February, there will be less dust on the road thanks to the frequent rain. It is because of the longevity and grandness of baobabs that Malagasies consider them divine plants. Baobab Avenue is also a wonderful spot for photos. And the sunset time is the most beautiful. After that, have a baobabs drink and take some souvenirs from the small stalls on the avenue.|
