We have been to many of the world's best beaches and they certainly don't come much better than this! Think silky white sand, crystal clear water and palm-tree paradise and you are getting close.

  • Sail along the shoreline in a traditional Dhow
  • Catch a tan on your own private beach paradise
  • Laze around in the "papaya paradise" of Pemba
  • Go scuba-diving around the Quirimbas Archipelago
  • ‘Robinson Crusoe style’ coast - exclusive & private
  • Hop from one idyllic island to another as you please

A collection of exclusive islands

Deep in the northern reaches of Mozambique, the Quirimbas Archipelago is one of the world's most remote beach destinations. It's certainly more off the beaten track than its southern neighbour Bazaruto and that is precisely why it is worth visiting. The white sand beaches are silky and unspoilt, the tropical waters are crystal clear and palm trees peer out onto the horizon. It's pretty picturesque.

The archipelago contains a collection of over 30 islands off the coast of Pemba. These islands stretch for over 250km from Ilha Tecomaji in the north to Ilha Mefunvo in the south. They really do offer a Robinson Crusoe style secluded getaway - tourists are few and far between and you have beaches of indescribable beauty all to yourself. Pemba itself is a historic town in a scenic setting - nicknamed Mozambique's papaya paradise, it is certainly worth a stay before or after your island escapade.

NB: You can combine a trip to the Quirimbas with a safari in the Kruger Park or East Africa - contact us to plan your tailormade trip!
