The Bazaruto Archipelago consists of five dune islands, strung out in the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean.
Declared a National Park in 1971, these islands are untouched and idyllic. There are sugar white beaches that squeak underfoot. Palm trees give way to lush vegetation, where there are samango monkeys, green coucals and blue-cheeked bee-eaters make their home.
Beaches of Bazaruto Archipelago
Tucked away are little villages, shaded beneath orange and cashew nut trees. However, it is perhaps the sea that holds the greatest attraction. Warmed by the waters of the Mozambique Stream, the waters are clear with mile upon mile of reefs.
Activities and wildlife
It is hard to beat the diving and snorkeling in Bazaruto, as the coral is pristine and fish life superb. You will find three species of turtle, including the loggerhead that nests on the islands, while spinner and humpback dolphins and dugong are also seen.
