Bekopaka
A small village on the Manambolo River, home to the park reception center, guesthouses, and the ferry crossing, and the only base for exploring the Tsingy.
Bekopaka is located on the north bank of the Manambolo River. The national park reception center, several eco-lodges, and campsites are all near the village. Here you can buy tickets, hire guides, and arrange 4WD vehicles and canoes. Travelers coming from the south must cross the river by car ferry to enter the village. The ferry runs during the day and stops at night. The village has simple restaurants and small shops. Electricity mostly comes from generators or solar power, and mobile signal is weak, so bring enough cash and drinking water.
