a seaside site that was a lively trading port and an obligatory stop for Persian and Arab merchants on their way home

The site is less imposing than that of Gedi, but its location by the sea gives it an extraordinary charm. This ancient Swahili city, built around 1350, was a bustling trading port and an obligatory stopover for Persian and Arab merchants on their way home. For reasons unknown, this flourishing city disappeared barely a century later. The ruins of a few houses and three mosques built of coral stone can be seen here. If you are lucky enough to be alone on the site, it is truly enchanting.
