It shares its name with ist largest settlement, the town Bolama, which is the capital of the island and the Bolama Region. It is almost surrounded by mangrove swamps and is known for its cashew nuts. Although often visited by local people, the island was apparently uninhabited when British colonists settled it in 1792. Following a series of failures, they abandoned the island in 1794, another colonisation attempt in 1814 also being quickly ended.

Befolkningen är drygt 8496 personer, varav knappt hälften lever i huvudstaden. Arean är 105 kvadratkilometer. Ön var tidigare koloniserad av Portugal. Den är känd för de stora mängder fladdermöss som varje kväll flyger ut ur sina gömställen i övergivna hus och samlas på fastlandet. På grund av öns särskilda ekologi har Guinea-Bissau under flera år försökt få den utnämnd till världsarv av Unesco. (sv)
