Located just off the northern coast of Mozambique, the Quirimbas Archipelago dots the glittering Indian Ocean. It is renowned for its rich history and natural beauty featuring white-sand beaches fringed with low-key resorts and offers some of the best diving in the country. The archipelago is home to some of the most unspoilt beaches and coral reefs found anywhere in the world, featuring an abundant array of Mozambique's spectacular marine life. The Quirimbas Archipelago is comprised of a chain of over 25 coral islands, which escaped the 20th century with almost no development. Many of these islands fall within the Quirimbas National Park, providing a marine sanctuary for whales, dolphins, and endangered dugong. The area is known for its high-quality dive sites, many with exceptional drop-offs.
Surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Quirimbas Archipelago, this private Mozambican island features unspoilt beaches, coral reefs, and dense coastal forests. Once an uninhabited retreat for sailors and traders navigating the Indian Ocean, it now hosts an exclusive eco-lodge blending luxury with sustainability. Villas constructed from natural materials overlook the ocean, with direct access to soft white sand and warm shallows teeming with marine life. Kayaking through mangroves, guided snorkelling along vibrant reefs, and diving excursions to underwater cliffs reveal a thriving aquatic ecosystem. Inland, baobab trees shade winding trails where birdwatchers can spot native species. Sunset dhow cruises highlight the surrounding seascape, while fresh seafood dinners complement panoramic views. Conservation initiatives protect turtles and reef habitats, allowing guests to witness the island’s biodiversity. With limited guests at any time, the atmosphere remains tranquil, creating an unparalleled sense of exclusivity and connection to nature.
