Chole Island

TIME : 2016/2/17 10:53:44

This is a good place to start exploring, especially around its crumbling but atmospheric ruins, dating from the 19th century. Also on Chole is what is probably East Africa’s only Fruit Bat Sanctuary (Comoros lesser fruit bat). This is thanks to the efforts of a local women’s group who bought the area where an important nesting tree is located.
