Bouni

Bouni is a beach on the eastern shore of Grande Comore facing the Indian Ocean with fine white sand and palm trees lining the coastline. The shallow waters offer clear views of the seafloor, and local fishing boats are commonly anchored near the shore.

The beach became a destination for visitors after the French colonial period ended and regional development expanded across the island. Fishing families have maintained their presence along this coast for generations, shaping its character.

Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices along the beach, using wooden boats and methods passed down through generations of Comorian seafarers.

The beach is accessible by taxi or rental car from Moroni in about an hour via the coastal road. Visit during the dry season for the most comfortable conditions and best swimming opportunities.

Tropical fish become visible in the shallow coves during low tide without any special equipment needed. This natural snorkeling experience makes the beach popular with visitors interested in observing marine life up close.
