Off the northern coast of Mozambique lies the island the country is named
after – Ilha de Mocambique. It was settled in the 1400s by Portuguese
explorers. Today, the island is inhabited by local fisherman. This shot
captures these men hard at work in the stunning blue waters of the Indian Ocean.

Ilha de Mozambique was first occupied by Portuguese explorers in the late
1400s. They quickly estblished a fort there, and with time quite a community
sprang up, including a church, mosque, shops, and residences. This church is
one of the architectural remains there. The island, a UNESCO World Heritage
Site, is off the eastern coast of Africa and is part of the country of
Mozambique.
