Baia dos Tigres or Great Fish Bay is a bay in Angola.[2] It is located in the Namibe Province.

Geography

It once had a small peninsula on its eastern side, with its isthmus in the south and a well established fishing village named Tigres. The ocean broke through the isthmus of the peninsula in 1962 and the water line was severed.[3] Tigres became an island overnight, Tigres Island, the largest island of Angola.[4]

Currently most of the area of the former bay has become a strait between the island and the mainland. Of the original bay only a small inlet open to the north —the Saco dos Tigres— remains at the southern end.[5]
