Intimacy and romance are the cornerstones of any trip to this fabulous beach lodge, positioned on the northwest coast of Mozambique's second-largest island, Benguerra. The site is enchanting, nestled between the trees of an indigenous forest and overlooking the pristine beaches and waters of the Bazaruto Archipelago. And whilst it may look like something from a Bond film, the atmosphere is perfectly relaxed and oozes laid-back island vibes. Spend your days diving or snorkelling in the protected marine waters, home to tropical fish, turtles, whales, dolphins and Africa’s last remaining dugongs, munch fresh seafood on the beach, or cruise the glittering waters at sunset aboard a dhow. We guarantee that every hour will be magical.
