The morning opens with the hum of an air-conditioned van and the low, measured chatter of a local guide as the road peels away from coastal hotels and heads south. By the time the group arrives at Macondé View Point, the wind is already at work—lifting spray from the ocean, stroking the grasses on the rim, and pushing you to the edge of a panorama that looks out over the Indian Ocean and the jagged silhouette of the island’s southern coastline.
