Mwali Island

Mwali, also known as Mohéli, is a small island in the Comoros between Africa and Madagascar. Reefs, lagoons and small islets lie off its shores, while streams descend from its green interior. Unlike rocky Ngazidja, Mwali offered relatively safe anchorages to ocean-going vessels, although these were limited to a few places. Its people traded with Madagascar and the African coast, linking the island's produce to the wider Indian Ocean.
