The Bombetoka Bay leads into the Mozambique Channel from the island nation of Madagascar in this photograph from the International Space Station as it orbited 262 miles above.
Bombetoka Bay is a bay on the northwestern coast of Madagascar near the city of Mahajanga, where the Betsiboka River flows into the Mozambique Channel. Numerous islands and sandbars have formed in the estuary from the large amount of sediment carried in by the Betsiboka River and have been shaped by the flow of the river and the push and pull of tides.
