It is located near the coast and near the mouth of the Rianila River.

During the French colonial rule of the island, Andrevoranto was the capital of Andevoranto Province, and sources also described it as a former capital of the Betsimisaraka people in the region. The town was at that point also the junction of a number of important roads, including the key road from the coast to the capital, Antananarivo. Today, the key route of Route nationale 2 from the capital is located west of Andevoranto.
