Fatos rápidos: The Hafun Peninsula stretches into the Indian Ocean and holds the title of Africa's easternmost point. Ancient shipwrecks along its shores tell tales of maritime trade routes linking Africa with Arabia and Asia.
Destaques: Sunsets splash brilliant hues over the crashing waves, painting the rugged coastline in gold and crimson hues that photographers dream of capturing. Local fishermen still use centuries-old dhows, sails billowing against the backdrop of endless turquoise sea.
