THE LOT INFO

Step onto your private charter at either Cape Town International Airport or O.R International Airport for a quick flight to Mozambique. On landing in Vilanculos, you and your 7 guests, will be whisked away by helicopter to the spectacular paradise of &Beyond Benguerra Island for a three-night stay in a luxurious casinha.

Surrounded by warm waters and a pristine coral reef teeming with marine life, within the protected marine reserve of the Bazaruto Archipelago National Park, Benguerra Island offers a landscape of idyllic beaches, inland freshwater lakes and towering sand dunes.

The lodge lies sheltered within the canopy of an indigenous forest and swaying palm trees. The welcoming guest areas offer views of the lush tropical garden and the ocean beyond. Under the shade of straw covered wooden awnings, comfortable loungers are set up around the lodge’s rim flow swimming pool.

The vibrant dhow-inspired bar is the hub of the lodge, offering the perfect setting to sip on a signature cocktail, while a cool massage sala, set in tranquil forest surrounds, awaits to pamper.

The casinhas boast a light and airy colour scheme that combines tropical chic with a distinct African feel. Small decorative pieces hint at reminders of the area’s Portuguese heritage. An ensuite bathroom is located on one side of the bedroom and a small sitting area on the other side of the bed.

After a successful day of adventures, retreat to the comfort of a private timber deck where a rim flow pool, private sala, hanging daybed, and sun loungers await. The island isn’t called an adventure haven for nothing.

Your stay includes two scuba diving sessions per day (for those who are fully certified), to dive sites such as the famous Two Mile Reef. A fully equipped PADI dive centre offers a full range of exciting diving adventures to suit every guest, as well as host of courses (additional cost) for those who would like to be certified during their stay.

Other activities include sea kayaking, scheduled snorkelling trips, an island expedition and community tour, a sunset dhow cruise around the sheltered bay, and a castaway picnic on a remote section of the island .
