Vohemar

Vohemar (Malagasy: Vohimarina [vuiˈmarʲnə̥] or Iharana [iaˈraŋə̥]) is a coastal city and a municipality in northern Madagascar.

In addition to primary schooling the town offers secondary education at both junior and senior levels.

[2] From the late medieval period, Northern Madagascar had a number of small and large trading towns ruled by Swahili merchants.

Vohemar, one such town, was likely founded around the 13th Century as a Swahili trading port.

Vohemar is situated at the Route National 5a that connects the city with Ambilobe and Sambava/Antalaha.
