Overview
The Island of Mist
Lose yourself in the pristine beauty of the Ilha de Bazaruto, a tropical island 30km off the coast of Mozambique, where rolling sand dunes melt into the clear Indian ocean. This is truly one of nature’s last untouched paradises.
The luxury villas are comfortable and spacious, blending naturally with the island’s un-spoilt surroundings. All 44 suites are sprinkled along the coast giving you ample space and seclusion. Head out to your private balcony and be greeted with a spectacular view of pure white sands, turquoise water and breathtaking sunsets.
The Bazaruto Archipelago is a protected marine reserve and national park known for its pristine environment. Take time swimming with dolphins and experiencing the annual migration of humpback whales. The watersports centre will set you up with epic diving, snorkeling and fishing excursions. Or spend your days lazing on the beach with the sand between your toes. End your day with a horse-ride along the beach, or a sail on a dhow at sunset.
