The largest baobab in this world is found in the village of Belintsaka, 23 kilometres or 14 miles from Morombe. It has a circumference of almost 28 metres or 92 feet. There are more than 6000 adult baobabs alone in the forest of Andombiry of which 30 specimen are very large, with a circumference of more than 20 metres or 66 feet.[4]

Morombe has a hot semi-arid climate (Köppen BSh) with a short and highly variable[5] wet season in January and February. These two months account for about 70 percent of an annual rainfall that averages around 450 millimetres or 18 inches, although during the 2000 floods that amount fell in just 36 hours.[6]
