Anzer Island

TIME : 2016/2/19 0:04:51

The second-largest island in the archipelago, Anzer Island has its share of stone labyrinths and burial mounds, as well as a scattering of monastic sketes, the oldest dating back to the 17th century. One of these was used a typhoid hospital in the 1920s, and hundreds of prisoners died here.

Full-day visits to Anzer costs R1300 per person.
