Punta Manjob

Punta Manjob is a rocky headland at the southern end of Annobón, a small volcanic island south-west of São Tomé. The island was uninhabited when the Portuguese arrived in the Gulf of Guinea. Its later inhabitants included people brought from Africa, and a Portuguese-based Creole developed among them. In 1778 Portugal ceded its rights to Annobón and Fernando Pó to Spain, although life on this distant island remained rooted in its own communities and their ties to the sea.
