Mayotte, an overseas department of France, is an archipelago located in the Indian Ocean near Madagascar and Mozambique. The archipelago consists of Grande-Terre, the main island, Petite-Terre, and several small islands. The population is about 212,000 people. As a French overseas department, a president of the General Council is the head of government. Mayotte sends two senators to the French Senate and one deputy to the French National Assembly.
France acquired Mayotte in 1841. In referendums in 1974 and 1976, the islands voted to retain their connection with France, rather than for independence. Comoros, however, continued to claim Mayotte. In a 2009 referendum, Mayotte citizens voted 95.5 percent in favour of becoming an overseas department of France, and this was made official in March 2011. Gradually, the non-official Islamic law will be abolished and the French civil code will be instituted.
Travellers to Mayotte can enjoy spectacular scenery, diving, snorkelling, and seeing the world’s largest lagoon.

Mayotte中的安全性
人身安全
馬約特島機會犯罪率高,扒竊和搶劫在人群密集場所頻繁。在馬穆楚的卡韋尼街區以及市場和交通樞紐等公共集會場所,外國人尤其容易成為犯罪目標。入室竊盜時有發生,竊賊有時會將外國人擁有或租用的房產作為目標。汽車竊盜、車輛入室竊盜和劫車事件在馬約特島各地時有發生,租賃車輛和豪華車是主要目標。島上存在幫派暴力事件,但犯罪分子通常使用刀具或槍支。雖然暴力事件很少直接針對外國人或遊客,但你還是有可能在錯誤的時間出現在錯誤的地點。 2021 年至 2023 年間,馬約特島每 10 萬居民記錄的兇殺案為 5.1 起,遠高於法國本土。持械搶劫仍然令人擔憂,光是 2023 年就通報了 400 多起此類事件。 2025年9月,島上暴力事件激增,包括攻擊校車和攻擊平民。卡韋尼和馬吉卡沃·拉米爾等地的幫派活動頻發,造成人員傷亡,敵對幫派之間的衝突擾亂了日常生活。
極端暴力
幫派暴力是馬約特島持續存在的安全威脅。犯罪集團在衝突中經常使用砍刀、刀具和槍支。 2023 年 12 月,卡韋尼和馬吉卡沃拉米爾的敵對幫派發生衝突,造成一名青少年死亡。校車成為暴力伏擊的目標,2022 年 11 月的一起事件成為法國各地的頭條新聞。在聰祖附近,一些團體襲擊通勤者,阻塞道路交通數小時,直至安全部隊介入。 2023 年 4 月,在「烏安布舒行動」期間,執法人員與在馬穆祖手持砍刀的攻擊者發生衝突。在孔古,四名憲兵遭到數十名襲擊者的襲擊而受傷,其中一些襲擊者偽裝成婦女,手持砍刀和石塊。法國內政部已多次增派安全部隊以應對反覆發生的暴力事件。當地官員和民間團體越來越多地批評不斷發生的不安全事件,包括針對學生和公共交通的攻擊、非法路障和謀殺。
政治動盪
由於社會經濟緊張局勢,主要城市週期性地爆發自發性示威和騷亂。抗議者與安全部隊之間曾發生衝突。即使是和平示威也可能突然演變成暴力事件,並導致與當局的衝突。抗議活動擾亂了交通、公共交通以及醫療和緊急服務。 2024年2月,馬約特生存力量(Forces vives de Mayotte)的抗議者關閉了隆戈尼港,以表達對非正常移民和安全措施不足的不滿。封鎖影響了該地區65%的糧食供應需求。在整個2024年,示威者在島上各處設置路障,數週的路障導致經濟癱瘓並造成糧食短缺。因缺水而爆發的抗議活動多次爆發,「馬約特渴了」運動要求對所謂的管理不善追究責任。 2024年初,該地區經歷了嚴重的內亂,持續兩週的抗議、暴力和宵禁擾亂了日常生活。圍繞移民政策和資源分配的政治緊張局勢繼續加劇週期性的動亂。
應避免的區域
馬穆楚的卡維尼(Kaweni)社區屬於高風險地區,竊賊經常以外國人為目標。該地區的扒竊和盜竊等犯罪活動尤其猖獗。首都馬穆楚人潮擁擠的公共場所輕微犯罪率較高。市場和交通樞紐吸引了伺機而動的犯罪分子。包括馬吉卡沃·拉米爾(Majikavo Lamir)在內的地區曾發生過幫派衝突和暴力事件。聰祖(Tsoundzou)週邊地區曾發生過路障襲擊通勤者的情況。孔古(Koungou)地區曾發生安全部隊與武裝團體之間的衝突。在民眾騷亂期間,班德雷萊(Bandrele)、登貝尼(Dembeni)、奇科尼(Chiconi)、薩達(Sada)、瓦安加尼(Ouangani)、奇龍吉(Chirongui)、布埃尼(Boueni)和卡尼凱利(Kani-Keli)等鄉鎮的主要道路上設置了安全道路,主要阻礙了交通。該地區光線昏暗或偏僻的地區風險更高,尤其是在傍晚和夜間。農村地區和人口稀少地區的安保力量有限,緊急應變速度較慢。
