Arrive into Vilanculous, you will me met and transported to a coastal paradise!

Imagine an unspoilt island within a pristine Marine National Park. Miles of deserted beaches with soft white sand. Sparkling turquoise seas, crisscrossed by local dhow boats plying their trade. Swaying palms, gentle breezes, sunny days and star studded nights.

Azura Benguerra Island is built entirely by hand in partnership with the local community, has just 18 spacious ’beach-chic’ designer villas, each with their own private pool stretching out to the Indian Ocean beyond, and located a few steps from the pristine white sand beach. They offer every comfort, with handcrafted king size beds, feature bathrooms with indoor and outdoor showers, air-conditioning.

A vast range of guided activities and experiences for you to enjoy, including world class snorkelling, fishing and scuba diving, island tours, community and school visits, horse riding, spa treatments and island hopping by boat or helicopter.

For those who like to ride, a trek along the water’s edge on the horses based on Benguerra Island and back along some of the island’s tracks and trails is an experience never to forget! Arranged through Mozambique Horse Safaris, there are 9 horses available to suit all levels, from complete beginner upwards.
