The Vezo is the term the semi-nomadic coastal people of southern Madagascar use to refer to people that have become accustomed to live from sea fishing. The Vezo speak a dialect of the Malagasy language, which is a branch of the Malayo-polynesian language group derived from the Barito languages, spoken in southern Borneo. They currently populate most of the littoral zone along Madagascar’s west coast between Toliara and Mahajanga.

- Il Vezo (pronunciato "Vezu") è un popolo di origini asiatiche presente nel sudovest del Madagascar, su un territorio costiero che va approssimamente da Anakao (50 km circa a sud di Toliara) fino a Morondava (400 km a nord). Sono abilissimi pescatori, e con le loro piroghe inseguono i banchi di pesci in mare aperto anche per molti giorni. Quando si trovano a dover passare la notte in mare, si "accampano" usando le vele per montare rudimentali tende; per via di questa usanza sono detti "nomadi del mare". Le loro tombe tradizionali sono decorate con sculture erotiche.

They currently populate most of the littoral zone along Madagascar’s west coast between Toliara and Mahajanga. They do not identify with a particular Malagasy ethnic group but instead with their way of life. Because of their semi-nomadic marine migrations, their population is difficult to determine and has been estimated by counting the dugout canoes called pirogues around Madagascar. "Vezo" literally means the people who fish, but also has been known to mean 'to struggle with the sea'.
- Les Vezo (ou Veso ou Vezu), parfois appelés les « nomades de la mer », forment un peuple de Madagascar qui occupait autrefois le littoral sud-ouest ouest du pays et vivant essentiellement de la pêche.
