Bazaruto Island

Five tropical Islands make up the Bazaruto Archipelago. This 37000 hectare feat of nature forms part of the Bazaruto National Park, and thanks to early environmental preservation of the site, makes it one of the world’s most exquisite reef diving and overland exploration destinations.

A chartered flight or boat trip from Vilanculos will get you to the biggest island of this archipelago, Bazaruto Island. The island became a National Park in 1971 and is now one of the best scuba diving destinations on the African coastline. The ocean waters surrounding the island is rich with amazing marine life.

There is no shortage of entertainment on Bazaruto Island, and you might find it hard to decide what will be on the agenda for the day. Divers will have the opportunity to spot the rare and elusive Dugong, see several different species of shark, dolphin and whale as well as turtles, rays and an abundance of tropical fish. For the water sports enthusiasts, there is a host of activities to keep you in the water including water-skiing, wakeboarding and snorkelling. The near untouched waters provide fishing enthusiasts with the best tag and release game fishing opportunities in the area.
