Beyond this place and navigating 4 slow hours of motor boat off shore I have dived in the best reefs in the Kirimbas Islands atolls, a pristine environment underwater - super!
Big hug, Jorge!

This is old, before the Colonial Portuguese war started in the area (1964). A non-sense of colonial war happened later instead of development of both portuguese and mozambique people. It was the fascist power of Antonio Salazar in Portugal. at the time.
The area was fantastic, great nature with wild animals crossing the village like lions, with very nice native people.
At this small islet I was speared (while diving) in my back while spear fishing. I escaped this accident by mere luck! I was hit close to my spine with an iron harpoon by a close friend. I was 24.
Big hug, BERE!
