A gost village in Salomon island - Chagos

The Chagos archipelago, which is part of BIOT (British Indian Ocean Territory), was inhabited until the 70's, when the British leased the atoll of Diego Garcia to the United States to make an airbase. See www.walkabout.it The inhabitants who had settled in the archipelago since several centuries before and lived gathering coconuts and extracting the oil where , for security reasons were relocated and deported en masse in their islands of origin: Mauritius. Currently, the islands were declared a marine park and thanks to their isolation is one of the few remaining untouched paradises on earth. _________________________________________________________________________ Guarda le nostre crociere in barca vela https://www.walkaboutcharter.com _________________________________________________________________________ Segui Sailing Walkabout: YouTube: iscriviti e attiva la campanella ? http://bit.ly/2S6nW6G Leggi il blog del giro del mondo in barca a vela https://www.walkabout.it/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WalkaboutCharter Instagram su Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WalkaboutCharter
