About Moroni
Moroni sits on the volcanic coast of Grande Comore in Comoros, pairing a historic medina with beaches and views toward Karthala.
Moroni’s laid-back streets combine Swahili, Arab and French influences, with Comorian, French and Arabic heard across the city. Badjanani brings the Old Friday Mosque, the Medina and Moroni Volo Volo Market, while the National Museum of Comoros adds local context.
Excursions reach Lac Salé, Itsandra Beach and the slopes of Volcan Karthala; island dishes include pilau and langouste à la vanille. Three to seven days suits a stay centered in Moroni City Center.
