BENGUERRA LODGE
- Island lodge with stilted chalets
- Overlooking Benguerra Bay
- Wonderful snorkelling & watersports
- Excellent birdwatching
Benguerra Lodge is set amidst indigenous milkwood trees overlooking Benguerra Bay. The Lodge consists of an open-fronted thatch-and-reed main building embracing the lounge, bar and dining room area flanked by secluded chalets. Built on stilts, each chalet offers en suite facilities and a private balcony.
Activities include excellent snorkelling and scuba diving on the breathtaking reefs, viewing the vast array of colourful fish and extraordinary-shaped coral. A highlight would be to see dugongs or green turtles, while goldies, blue-banded snappers, rubberlips, potato and brindle bass, manta and eagle rays, kingfish and frogfish, to name a few, are regularly encountered. You may go windsurfing and sailing by hobiecat or enjoy a sunset sail on a dhow. Birding is spectacular at Benguerra. The mangrove forest, beaches and freshwater lakes harbour about 80 to 115 species depending on the season. A highlight is the flocks of flamingos that breed in the lakes. Anglers can experience the thrill of deep-sea fishing, fighting marlin or game fish, in the fully-equipped boats with an experienced skipper. Saltwater fly fishermen can meander around the flats in a specially constructed boat, casting for rare bonefish. You may also visit the fishermen’s villages or the market at Vilanculos.
Alternatively you can enjoy a delightful picnic and explore the bird life along the tideline and freshwater lakes or simply comb deserted beaches in solitude and serenity. Scuba diving and boat hire for fishing or excursions are at an extra cost and must be paid for at the Lodge.
