Sava is region in Madagascar.

The region is situated at the northern part of the east coast of Madagascar. It is bordered by Diana (North), Sofia (West) and Analanjirofo (South).

The region is divided into 4 districts.

[edit] Districts

  • Andapa
  • Antalaha
  • Sambava
  • Vohemar

The name is composed of its four principal towns: Sambava, Antalaha, Vohémar, and Andapa. Each of these towns claims the honorific title "World capital of vanilla," a spice of which (under the name vanilla Bourbon) the region is the largest producer in the world. Its economic importance encouraged the reconstruction of the road that connects the towns, called the "Route de la vanille" ("Vanilla route") in the second half of 2005.
