Ambodivahibe Marine Reserve is a new marine protected area in the municipalities Ramena and Mahavanona[1] in the Diana Region, north-east of Madagascar as an unusually rich zone for marine biodiversity. It covers the Ambodivahibe Bay. A cool upwelling from the deep bay is thought to provide natural resilience to coral bleaching and this may explain the unusually pristine coral habitat.

The area also hosts nationally-important areas of mangrove and seagrass habitat as well as endangered marine species including sea turtles and dugongs [2]
