'Island of Goa'), locally known as Watólofu, also known as Saint George Island (Portuguese: Ilha São Jorge), is a small archetypal desert island, with a flat rocky brown coral reef outcrop with dense borderline vegetation, white sand beach and a lighthouse. It is surrounded by crystal clear water, home to a variety of tropical fishes. The island is uninhabited and located within Nampula Province in Mozambique. It is situated in the Indian Ocean near Mozambique Channel about 5 km (3.1 mi) east of Mozambique Island and is part of an archipelago with Island of Sena (Portuguese: Ilha de Sena) and Island of Mozambique.[1][2][3]
