Little more than a fishing village when visited in 1651, Toamasina grew around a natural coral-reef harbour into Madagascar's leading port after 18th-century European traders settled there, and it was confirmed as the east coast's main port under French colonial rule following the 1883 bombardment of the city. Privatised in 2004 under the operator SPAT, it now handles roughly 80% of the country's seaborne trade.
