Le 5 Trop Près

Northern Madagascar


Ramena is a fishing village so it’s hardly surprising that seafood is plentiful. Right on the beach at Le 5 Trop Près (pronounced like St Tropez, a wink to the glitzy French Riviera town), it comes in many guises and everything is delicious. There's a buzzy, friendly vibe. It is especially popular on Sundays, when booking is recommended.

Next door are three rooms for hire at Ar70,000. They have fans and wi-fi, but no hot water.
