The district of Tsihombe includes the [Cape Sainte Marie](/source/Cape_Sainte_Marie), the southernmost point of Madagascar. At Cape Sainte Marie there is also a wildlife reserve.

This is the semi-arid region of Madagascar and the population uses to eat [cactus fruit](/source/Cactus_fruit) and [crickets](/source/Crickets) to survive.[6][7][8]

A water-pipeline of 225 km is presently under construction if the tubes will not be embezzled.[9]
