Mamoudzou, Capital city in Mayotte, France

Mamoudzou extends across 141.94 square kilometers on Grande-Terre island, containing six distinct villages and three administrative cantons at 23 meters above sea level.

The settlement transformed from a small community of 4,556 residents in 1966 to become the administrative capital of Mayotte in 1977, replacing Dzaoudzi.

The Place du Marche functions as the commercial nucleus of Mamoudzou, where residents gather for trading activities and community interactions throughout the year.

Regular ferry services connect the mainland area of Mamoudzou with Petite Terre island, providing essential transportation for the 71,437 inhabitants recorded in 2017.

The radio station broadcasts in both French and Mahorian languages, while temperatures range from 9.5°C to 34.8°C, unusual for an Indian Ocean location.
