Comoros Islands

Fringed by coral and polished by the warm Agulhas waters, Comoros and neighbouring Mayotte offer wild, rewarding sailing that still feels off the beaten track. Expect a cinematic lagoon in Mayotte for protected cruising, inter-island hops across the Comoros archipelago for bluewater miles, and abundant marine life from nesting turtles to humpbacks. This guide sets out the winds, seasons, anchorages and entry formalities in a clinically structured way, so you can plan with confidence—whether you are chartering a catamaran in Mayotte’s lagoon or arriving on your own keel to explore Moroni, Mutsamudu and Mohéli’s marine park.
