Set among the Quirimbas Archipelago, in a marine conservation area off the coast of northern Mozambique, the idyllic coral island of Vamizi is blessed with a tropical climate and offers immaculate powder-soft beaches that rival those of the Maldives. Perfect for families or groups, six luxurious villas beckon to guests, each individually decorated to offer you a private slice of paradise. This is a destination to be explored at your own pace.

Vamizi Island’s waters contain a plethora of marine life and have been deemed one of the healthiest coral reef eco-systems in the world. A combination of wild underwater landscapes, the bounty of tropical ocean currents and an abundance of aquatic life, makes Vamizi a truly world-class diving holiday destination.

Vamizi Island is home to green sea turtles that come up onto the beach to nest at night. If you’re lucky enough to be there in season, you can witness this amazing sight. When the eggs hatch some baby turtles may be trapped in the sand and these stragglers are saved and released by the Conservation Team; a fantastic activity for children to be involved in!

Between July and September each year the humpback whales pass andBeyond Vamizi Island on their epic voyage from East Africa to Antarctica. They bring their new-born calves with them and the new families enjoy frolicking in the deep water channels around the island.
