Machangulo Beach Villa
Snorkeling & Diving trips
Right in front of the Villa is a big reef that allows you to snorkel in the many small rock pools.
16km of pristine beach and coast line to explore
For the more experienced swimmers, the ocean side of the reef is spectacular but can be a bit wild as well.
We can arrange special trips for the whole family, big and small, to Inhaca Island or a dhow experience
Whale watching Mid July to end November
Deep sea fishing
If you want to go on a real adventure then book a deep see fishing trip.
You will go offshore with a very experienced crew and are in for a serious fishing adventure.
You will have big chance of catching Dorado, Barracuda or even Tuna.
Turtle monitoring
From December until mid February the gigantic Leatherback and loggerhead turtles come ashore to nest.
Shortly after that the eggs will hatch and the hatchlings will try to make it to the safety of the ocean. You can assist our team with mapping the nests but also go out at night and see them coming ashore. An incredible event.
Beachcombing!
Over 16 km of pristine beaches are waiting for you to be explored.
Follow the reefs and during low tide watch the fish find shelter in the many rock pools.
Collect shells and if you’re lucky, see the turtles and the dolphins surf through the waves.
Take your frisbee with you if you want to be more active or just enjoy the sea breeze through your hair..
Whale watching
From July till November the big whale trek starts.
Although you can see hundreds of them swimming and jumping high in the water from your deck, there is nothing more spectacular than being next to them in a boat.
Their watchful eyes following you and waving at you with their big tails…whilst frolocking in the ocean
Dhow trips
Go sailing for a day on a traditional Dhow. Experience how supplies where sent from the mainland to Machangulo and submerge yourself in the solitude of the wind filling the sails, the flamingo’s flying low over the water in the distance and the traditional fisherman fishing with their nets standing in the water or sitting on a single pole……
Maputo Special Reserve
The Maputo Special Reserve is a unique environment with beautiful vistas, big herds of elephants and buffalos, inland lakes with hippos and flamingos and hardly any tourist. One of the few places in Africa where elephants have been seen wandering on the beach… We make special day trips in this Reserve and show a piece of Mozambique what only a few people have seen before.
