The island measures just 17 sq km with dirt roads and a few vehicles, the local people survive largely by fishing and rice and cassava farming. The island has hundredsof huge baobab trees and a number of glorious sandy beaches and rocky coves. There are no hippos and the hotel tests regularly for bilharzia and results have proven clear every time.
