"This beach is like a little slice of paradise! Right nearby, you can enjoy a meal at Miki's, where the food is always fresh and delicious. There are also several owners who rent out simple and rustic bungalows. I highly recommend staying at Sylviane's bungalows, as they are charming and cozy."

You simply stop by and see what Mickey has on han..."

Le Trou Du Prophete (Grande Comore) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Le Trou Du Prophete (Grande Comore) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Le Trou Du Prophete for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing.
