Mayotte · Grande-Terre
Short description of Mtsamboro
Mtsamboro is a fishing village on Mayotte's north-western coast, facing an islet of the same name that is the third largest piece of land in the territory. Boats go out from here to the sandbank of Sable Blanc, a bare crescent of white sand in the lagoon that appears at low tide and vanishes again. The channel towards the outer reef is the most reliable place in Mayotte to see dolphins, and humpback whales pass through in the southern winter. The village lives from fishing and from the fruit grown on the islet.
