Palmarium Reserve, located on the edge of Lac Ampitabe along the Pangalanes Canal, is a 50-hectare littoral forest reserve known for its diverse wildlife. The reserve is most famous for its semi-wild aye-ayes, which can be seen on a small forested island where they often feed on coconuts. In addition to aye-ayes, the reserve is home to several lemur species, including the indri, black-and-white ruffed lemur, and common brown lemur. Palmarium also hosts a variety of reptiles, such as colorful day geckos, leaf-tailed geckos, and the giant hog-nosed snake.

    Spent most of the day here looking at various species of lemurs. The reserve also has a kitchen with a fixed menu.

    Quite a few lemur species in a small area. Not completely "in the wild" though.

    Electricity and hot water limited,. But given the location and nature of the surroundings this is understandable. Water at the lake side crystal clear, but too shallow to swim. Beach and the walk in the reserve were good.

    Once in a lifetime experience. This place had so many lemurs, they were friendly enough to come and eat breakfast with you.
