Benguerra Island

Benguerra Island, Mozambique

Benguerra Island offers an exclusive tropical escape nestled within Mozambique’s pristine Bazaruto Archipelago. Surrounded by turquoise waters and powder-white beaches, this luxurious eco-lodge blends barefoot elegance with world-class service. Guests are welcomed into ten castaway-chic casinhas and cabanas, thoughtfully designed with traditional Mozambican flair, private plunge pools, and sweeping ocean views. The island itself is a protected marine reserve, teeming with vibrant coral reefs, dolphins, dugongs, and a rich array of marine life, making it an idyllic destination for snorkelers, divers, and nature enthusiasts.

Whether riding horseback along the beach, setting sail on a traditional dhow at sunset, or indulging in a beachside spa treatment, every experience at Benguerra Island is curated for serenity and adventure. The lodge also offers personalised dining under the stars, guided island excursions, and warm, intuitive hospitality that reflects the spirit of the region. Ideal for honeymooners, families, and discerning travellers seeking privacy and natural beauty, Benguerra Island promises a deeply immersive and unforgettable retreat in one of Africa’s most untouched coastal paradises.
