Located in the heart of the wild Masoala Peninsula at Tampolo is a rustic bush camp. Set behind a line of hardwood trees and facing the golden beach sands are five double "African Safari-style" tents with thatched protective roofs, built on wooden decks. The verandahs have hammocks for those afternoon siestas. The tents are fully netted and furnished, providing the full experience of sleeping under canvas in the wilds, without any of the discomforts associated with camping. The main communal living area where you can find books and games is made of local Malagasy wood. Bathrooms and toilet huts are a short walk from the tents. Meals are a blend of Swiss & Malagasy rainforest cuisine using fresh fish and local produce. Activities include walks (day and night) in the primary rainforest, guided sea kayaking, and snorkelling, whale watching and fishing. Access to the lodge is by boat from the small town of Maroansetra. The primary rainforest of Masoala National Park, rich in wildlife, is a short walk in any direction and numerous birds, reptiles and mammals are found in the camp itself.
