Why We Love Nghunghwa Lodge

Stunning tropical sunsets, shimmering beaches and sultry hot weather on the magnificent coast of Mozambique and Bilene Lagoon.

It’s so easy to relax here where an enormous lagoon meets the sea and where water sports dominate every day in a summery paradise.

Experience the spectacular show of Turtle Bay, where leatherback turtles breed and a kaleidoscope of fish can be seen dancing around the reefs when diving or snorkelling.

Savour the lively a-la-carte restaurant and bar with its upbeat atmosphere and menu delighting in Mediterranean flavours and nuances.

Ocean and Land Activities at Bilene Nghunghwa Lodge 

Take to the Uembje Lagoon for days out on the water skiing, tubing, jet skiing, stand-up paddling, kayaking, sailing and swimming. Go diving and snorkelling in the ocean just beyond the lagoon mouth where long beach walks await and turtle watching is a thrill at night as these ethereal creatures emerge from the tides to lay their eggs in the sand. Fishing from the shore, the lagoon or out at sea is a huge attraction here so hook a huge sailfish if you can!

For the kids, Nghunghwa Lodge has created a small artificial lagoon and reef to kayak and explore underwater in safety while adults can plunge into the freshwater swimming pool and a 700-kilolitre saltwater pool.
