A day
in the archipelago

Six destinations from Vilanculos — white-sand islands, snorkelling over the reefs and the red dunes at sunset. Lunch served on the island.

  • Bazaruto Island (Vilanculos)

    Dunes above the sandbank.

  • Santa Carolina Island (Vilanculos)

    The oldest of the islands.

  • Benguerra Island (Vilanculos)

    A wide beach, dunes and the island community.

Mozambique

Two regions, the same ocean.

From the Bazaruto Archipelago in the north to Maputo Bay in the south. We operate in both — and these are the places where the day is spent.

  • Santa Maria, Inhaca (Maputo)

    On the other side of the country, the same water.

  • Two Mile Reef (Vilanculos)

    Shallow corals, a mask away.

  • Magaruque Island (Vilanculos)

    Sandbanks and a passing dhow.

  • Red Dunes (Vilanculos)

    Late afternoon, on land.
