Mayotte, The Island In The Lagoon
Фильм және анимация
00:00 Encircled by one of the world’s largest enclosed lagoons, the 101st French department is a real cultural crossroads between Africa, the Indian Ocean and Europe. This film by Pierre Brouwers is the true-to-life portrait of an island where little villages live in pace with age-old customs, where nature reveals a surprise package of flora and fauna. A guaranteed change of scenery...

And how does one insult an entire creed of black women unless you can know them. What is beauty in America may not be liked by you but loved by many others. So how can you say that Beyonce is not beauty how can you say Serena is not beauty, and you deny their beauty cause you are not a man in my country. I love this country and love the innovation and Technology that you will never imagine. So tread carefully about insulting our women. All women have beauty, maybe just maybe even You!

I would like to know how they came into owning this land? Where’s the history? Who they bought it from? I got it! They stole it & claimed it; just as they do everything else of significance. They can be driven out. This shows how BIG & WIDE the continent is. I say take back what’s rightfully yours/ours.If it’s NOT the Westerners it’s Chinese trying to take what’s ours.

Very appreciated by tourists, the island boasts rare biodiversity (whales, dolphins, tortoises, 35 species of birdlife) and a mild climate (26°C). As a member of the “Vanilla Isles” network, Mayotte has 57 accommodation establishments and is planning to create six coastal hotels, or 500 new rooms, by 2024.
