Why we love it
Keep your eyes peeled for Nile crocodiles on a game drive through local villages, where you can stop to taste wild fruits straight from indigenous trees.
For a leisurely hike, climb up Red Dune for sweeping views over Benguerra Island and the Indian Ocean - the perfect way to end a day.
Walk down to Southpoint Beach as your guide points out the island's flora and fauna along the way, before setting up a picnic on the sand.
For a showcase of what Mozambique has to offer, hop between islands, dunes and reefs to see incredible landscapes and marine life.
Spot dolphins and dugongs on your way to Paradise Island, where you can see abandoned colonial buildings and enjoy a picnic on the deserted beach.
Throw a line in Azura's waters to catch some of the best game fish in the ocean, including marlin and sailfish, often weighing over 25kg.
Join the underwater world on a dive to encounter whale sharks, manta rays, humpback whales and their calves, and many species of turtle.
Trek along the beach, stopping for a quick swim in the sea with the horses, before heading back along the island's tracks and trails.
The Haughtons
We really loved our time at Azura Benguerra Â- the beach here was Âperfect. The tide came right up to the edge of our beach cabana each evening at sundowner time. Both the staff and food were great and we were really well looked after. There was just the right amount of things to do, including fly fishing from the beach or from SUP and snorkelling. Overall it was just an incredible experience and we absolutely loved it – a real once in a lifetime trip.
