Tourists may be interested in one of several river
trips available in the area. These trips are a great alternative to boat trips
to the bay if the sea is too rough. You may travel in a traditional dugout
canoe, or choose to travel in a small, motorized boat. One suggested trip is on
the route to Navana, to the northeast of Maroantsetra. You can travel in a
privately hired dugout canoe, or elect to travel in a public canoe with local
residents. In a maze of channels between rice fields and river grasses, you
might surprise a kingfisher on a branch, or glide along with a flock of domestic
ducks. This trip is especially beautiful at sunrise or near sunset. It is
important to bring sunscreen on river trips. An umbrella is also suggested
