Presentazione generale
Mayotte and its lagoon
A huge lagoon, volcanic relief and villages in the Mahorese region surround a dense island with fragile natural balances.
To understand what Mayotte is and its lagoon, you must look at the side of Mont Choungui, Lac Dziani and the Mayotte Marine Natural Park. These places give you a view of a territory marked by island landscapes, the coastline, mountain reliefs and natural spaces and allow you to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.
Vedi tutto
For a stay of 2 to 6 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: irregular transport between certain sectors and social and health context to be checked before departure. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Place indismissible
Mount Choungui
Mount Choungui rises its dark cone south of Grande-Terre, visible from a distance above the villages and plantations. The climb is brief but steep, then the look embraces the lagoon, ridges and islets; in clear weather, it is one of the most clear views on the geography of Mayotte.
Lago
Lake Dziani
Lake Dziani fills an ancient crater of Petite-Terre, with green water that contrasts strongly with the cliffs and blue of the neighbouring lagoon. The ridge path offers changing views of the mahorai volcanoes; the warmth and absence of shade make the first hours of the day more pleasant.
Place indismissible
Mayotte Marine Natural Park
The Mayotte Marine Natural Park protects an immense lagoon where reefs, grasses and passes welcome turtles, dolphins and, depending on the season, humpback whales. The visit is mainly from the water, with framed exits that remind the fragility of corals and the need to keep its distance from wildlife.
Spiaggia
Plage de N'Gouja
In N的Gouja, the sand borders a herbarium where green turtles often come to feed just a few metres from the shore. The experience lies in this silent proximity, which requires to remain on the surface, not touch them and never cut their trajectory; the tide greatly influences visibility.
