About andBeyond Benguerra Island

andBeyond Benguerra Island occupies a spectacular stretch of pristine coastline on Benguerra Island, the second-largest in the Bazaruto Archipelago. The lodge embodies barefoot luxury — thatched casitas with ocean-facing plunge pools, open-air salas, and miles of untouched white sand.

The marine life here is extraordinary. Snorkel house reefs teeming with tropical fish, spot dolphins from your deck, and join ocean safaris to swim with whale sharks and manta rays. On land, explore the island's inland freshwater lakes where crocodiles and flamingos coexist.

Dinners are served on the beach under a canopy of stars, with Mozambican seafood — peri-peri prawns, grilled crayfish, and coconut fish curry — prepared by your private chef. This is the Indian Ocean's most exclusive island escape.
