Family holidays in Mozambique

Bazaruto is the largest island of the Bazaruto Archipelago, approximately 600 km north of Maputo, the capital city of Mozambique.

Besides Bazaruto, the archipelago is made up of Benguerra, Magaruque and Bangue islands, as well as the small island of Santa Carolina, commonly known as Paradise Island. The archipelago, declared a National Park in the year 2000, presents a wide diversity of fauna and flora which includes forest, savanna and swamp ecosystems.

The island, a small piece of paradise, is 35 km in length and 7 km wide between its furthest points. The impressive beauty of the coral reefs completes this subtropical ecosystem which is, enriched by the abundance and beauty of tropical fish, clean water and excellent conditions for all kinds of fishing activities. The archipelago is deservedly called the "Pearl of the Indian Ocean".

Pristine, palm fringed beaches and crystal clear seas, Mozambique is a great beach getaway for families with plenty of activities to keep every member of the family happy!

Mozambique is suitable for any age, but is a malarial country so anti-malarials will be required.

Accommodation in this wonderful country is in beach lodges with a variety of room options for those with children and activities are generally water based, with snorkelling, diving, kayaking, sailing and fishing all available. Inland excursions include horse-riding.

Family accommodation in Mozambique

Bazaruto Lodge is set behind a long white sandy beach in the north of Bazaruto Island. It is a simple but pretty lodge, ideal for people looking for a beautiful and quiet hideaway where the focus is the beach, snorkelling, fishing, diving, walking and exploring.
 

The lodge consists of 40 thatched-roof bungalows, which are dotted around the garden and at the back of the sandy beach. Inside, each bungalow has twin or double beds, simple furniture and a tiled bathroom with wc, basin and bath as well as an outdoor shower. Sandy paths lead you from your bungalow to the dining room, bar and swimming pool, all with lovely ocean views.
The restaurant serves buffet meals with an emphasis on seafood. Crab, crayfish, calamari, prawns and lots of fresh salads feature on the menu. While dinner is taken in the dining room, lunch is usually by the pool, or you can take a picnic to the beach.

Activities from the lodge include snorkelling, diving, fishing and exploring the island on foot or in 4WDs.
