NORTHERN MOZAMBIQUE Vamizi Island

Highlights

General information

Vamizi Island, in the Quirimbas Archipelago is an idyllic Mozambique island resort offering luxury Indian Ocean holidays. Part of the Maluane region, Vamizi is blessed with turtles, beaches, scuba diving and fishing and is an ideal romantic honeymoons destination as well as being perfect as an add on to your African safari.

The lodge is built at the end of a twelve kilometre beach and each of the 12 self contained cottages has a spacious living room, a spectacular bathroom, and a breezy veranda. The cottages are spaced a good distance apart to offer plenty of privacy, and have a footpath leading from the veranda down to the beach.

The island of Vamizi has clear blue water, abundant marine life, and thick, untouched coral reefs. The island is covered with thick forests of acacia, hibiscus and casuarina trees. The lodge is set on the north side of the island and set on the edge of indigenous tropical forest looking out across a white beach to the Indian Ocean beyond.

A marine survey has identified 350 species of fish and a great diversity of unbleached coral reefs around Vamizi Island. Sixteen different dive sites have been identified, from shallow dives for beginners to vertical (wall) dives for the more experienced diver. All diving and snorkeling equipment is available at Vamizi Island.
