Chissioua Bambo, Small uninhabited island in Mayotte, France.
Chissioua Bambo extends 600 meters in length and 200 meters in width, reaching an elevation of 29 meters above sea level in the Mozambique Channel.
The formation of Chissioua Bambo occurred through ancient lava flows, establishing its geological foundation as a volcanic island in the Indian Ocean.
The island serves as a crucial resting site for marine birds and holds protected status under the Mayotte Marine Natural Park conservation initiatives.
Three mooring buoys are installed around the island for boats to anchor safely without damaging the coral reefs beneath the surface.
Large baobab trees cluster at the western tip of the island, creating a natural landmark visible from the surrounding waters.
