Parc Ranoala

This NGO protects the environment by planting indigenous forest trees and spices in its nursery. Tours of the 40,000-sq-metre site are led by Jean-Pascal and take around 90 minutes. It's a shady, relaxing place adjacent to the Soavoanio Coconut Plantation so easy to tag on to a visit there. Go with a guide; Jean-Pascal doesn't speak English.
