Shisiwa Manyuny (also: Chissioua Magnougni , Shisiwa Madi Bacar ) is the westernmost island in the Parc marin de Mohéli , south of the island of Mohéli in the island state of Comoros .

geography

The archipelago off the south coast of Moheli consists of 5 large islands, which extend finger-like to the south into the sea, as well as numerous small rock islands and reefs. Manyuny is the westernmost of these islands. In the east joins the Chissioua Dzaha , which rises from the sea only about one kilometer east of the eastern tip of the island.

The island itself was probably used as a goat pasture on the orders of Madi Bacar .
