5 Hidden Island Paradises in Africa No One Talks About
Forget the crowds. These African islands are low-key, off-grid, and full of magic.
TUVA’s Hidden Island Picks:
São Tomé and Príncipe – Cocoa plantations, volcanic peaks, and empty beaches. One of Africa’s best-kept secrets.
Comoros – Floating between Madagascar and Mozambique, it’s wild, green, and rarely visited.
Ibo Island (Mozambique) – Colonial ruins + island life + dhow sailing = a time capsule.
Lamu Island (Kenya) – A Swahili coast gem with no cars, narrow alleys, and pure peace.
Nosy Be (Madagascar) – Coral reefs, whale watching, and nature that slaps. You’ll want to stay forever.
