Mozambique is a land where the rhythm of the ocean meets the heartbeat of nature. A country of pristine coral reefs, golden beaches, and warm Indian Ocean waters stretching endlessly into the horizon, it is an unspoiled haven for those seeking tranquility. The coastline, shaped by freshwater lakes and towering dunes, offers a beauty that beckons you to slow down and immerse yourself in its magic.
Time stands still on the eastern coast, where tropical retreats and private islands invite a sense of barefoot luxury. Among the most exquisite of these is &Beyond Benguerra Island, nestled within the protected marine reserve of the Bazaruto Archipelago National Park. A sanctuary of white sands and azure waters, this island hideaway is a gateway to a world of secluded relaxation, and intimate experiences.
Float across the ocean at sunset on a traditional dhow, cocktail in hand, as the sky ignites in brilliant hues. Feel the warmth of the sand beneath your feet, a gentle reminder to slow down and savor the moment. Beneath the waves, the elusive dugong glides through the seagrass meadows—a living relic of an ancient ocean, with one of its last remaining viable populations calling Benguerra Island home. Onshore, indulge in a “Castaway” private picnic on your own stretch of paradise.
For a truly unique experience, wade into the ocean on horseback, feeling the waves lap around you as you ride through the shallows. Engage with the land and its people in a way that feels natural and immersive—whether it’s harvesting seasonal ingredients at Sussurro or simply connecting with the vibrant communities that call this paradise home. Mozambique is a place where every moment is infused with the spirit of adventure and the quiet luxury of the ocean.
