Flight to Azura Benguerra
Accommodation
Azura Lodge is situated on Benguerra Island in the Bazaruto National Park. Fantastic sunsets, pristine nature and a dedicated Azura team await your arrival. All villas are located just a short distance away from the beach. Each is equipped with private plunge pool, air conditioning, electric fan, minibar, and veranda with loungers and couch. A private sala (daybed) at the beach front invites guest to gaze at the ocean and daydream.
Choose between a Beach Villa (small but beautiful, shower only), Luxury Beach Villa (larger, shower only), Infinity Beach Villa (larger pool, bath and shower), Royal Beach Villa (10 metre fully tiled pool, extra lounge and 30m beach frontage) Villa Amizade (2 bedrooms, bar, 10 metre pool), and the large Presidential Villa for up to six guests. Each villa has its own local villa host.
The main building comprises reception, dining area, bar, library with TV and Internet, curio shop, and the activity centre. Azura Lodge also includes the Peri Peri Beach Club, which can be reached in a short walk along the beach. The beach club is open twice a week in the evening and is a good place to get to know other guests and spend a fun evening.
The island is inhabited so guests can watch fishermen sailing their traditional dhows or women picking muscles in the shallow waters at low tide.

The islands are situated approximately 10-minutes flying distance from Vilanculos in the south of Mozambique. Vilanculos is a two-hour flight from Johannesburg. A visit to the islands is ideally combined with a safari in Botswana, or anywhere else in southern Africa. The archipelago was declared a national park in 1971. The waters around the islands are full of dolphin. Whale shark and whale visit at certain times of the year and sometimes one of the very rare dugong is spotted. Bazaruto is the largest island and offers some 3-4* hotels. We prefer the second largest island Benguerra Island, where Benguerra Lodge and Azura Lodge offer the best accommodation on the archipelago. On Magaruque and Santa Carolina the existing accommodations fell into disrepair during the civil war.
