These beautiful islands are an upmarket haven for visitors, who fly here to enjoy their unspoilt beauty. The exclusive
paradise island of Bazaruto, the largest of Mozambique’s islands, is a tranquil haven famous for its natural beauty. It’s an
angler’s paradise, and diving and snorkelling are very popular, too. Birdlife is abundant, with at least 240 species on the
island. Wonderful beaches converge at the northern tip of the island, forming a narrow sand split stretching several
kilometres out to sea.
Indigo Bay is a deluxe lodge situated on the south-western side of the island. This is the ultimate escape. Guests are
accommodated in wood and reed chalets with en suite shower and balconies overlooking the beach and the sea.
Benguerra Island, south of Bazaruto, is small, just 5km in width. It’s renowned for excellent fishing and is completely
unspoilt, with no vehicles or roads - just crystal white beaches and magnificent coral gardens.
On the island is the delightful 4 Star Marlin Lodge, an elevated structure on stilts with wooden decks, reed walls and
thatched roofs. Wooden walkways connect 20 chalets to the Lodge’s main reception area. This upmarket retreat is an ideal
destination for watersports enthusiasts and divers. It offers guests the ultimate private island experience.
Also on Benguerra Island is Benguerra Lodge, an island paradise with a rich East African/Arabic feel offering only 22
private en suite chalets all set a moment’s walk from the gorgeous silver-white beach of Benguerra Bay. At the lodge,
guests can choose to do as much, or as little, as they like, from snorkelling and scuba diving to diving, deep sea and
saltwater fly fishing and sailing in a traditional dhow.
