      • History

        Once, a stopping place for Arab sailing vessels during the 15th century, the island, then called by the name Amisa, was mostly inhabited by Muslim population. With a lucrative weaving industry that made a fine fabric called Maluane cloth, the island soon became a site of attraction and business prospects for Portuguese traders. That’s a prime reason it is home to many a historic remnants belonging to the Portuguese era that once flourished there. This including a church, a fort, several wells and a lighthouse from of the island’s old [wiki=ea71b362e3ea9969db085abfccdeb10d]Portugal[/wiki] period and way of life.

    • filter_dramaHabitat
      As an island similar to others within the Quirimbas Archipelago, Vamizi clearly represents one of the world’s most significant realms of bio-diversity. It is an asylum for few of the most significant and jeopardized wildlife species looking for habitat in the western Indian Ocean. With observations of newer species discovered and recorded often, the place is home to above 180 different species of coral and more than 400 species of reef fish.
    • filter_dramaCulture
      Owing to a secluded life on Vamizi with very few inhabitants, the place has mostly remained unadulterated by urban human settlement. Consequently, the culture around the island is mostly defined by raw African lifestyle and art. Local ladies can be found singing songs flowing with the natural music provided by the tumbling shells and the lapping waves on the sea shore. Fishing is not only a means to find food but also a popular tourist attraction that has long been associated with life on the island. As a result, most of the men are either fishermen or sailors maneuvering traditional dhows mirroring relics introduced by the old Arabic settlement.
    • filter_dramaTrading
      Along with the fine fabric the inhabitants of Vamizi produced, the place also extended trade in indigo, timber, ivory, manna (an edible gum) and turtle shells.
    • filter_dramaClimate
      The climate around the Vamizi Island can be described as tropical with a rather low-lying offshore position owing to which local trends in weather and atmosphere do not touch upon it as potently as they could. As a result, the place gets fairly protected from extreme weather conditions, the hottest months being October to April with a monthly average ranging between 27°C and 30°C. The place experiences tropical rain showers off and on during the period from January to March with the months becoming drier from June to September when the monthly average ranges between 26°C and 27°C. The water temperature along the island can be found at its warmest from January to March (28°C to 29°C) and at its coolest from July to September (25°C to 26°C).
