The beach developments along Mozambique’s breathtaking coastline and the introduction of reliable flights have made this popular combination a hit! We have detailed a 7-day itinerary with 2nts in a first class safari lodge within a private concession of world famous Kruger National Park. Then continue on to the pristine beaches and unspoiled coral reefs of an Indian Ocean coastal wildlife sanctuary in Mozambique for a 4nt stay in a beautiful beach resort. Please know that we have loads of lodging options and any number of nights can be arranged.

Benguerra Lodge – Bungalow (BD)
The Lodge is small and intimate and offers genuine hospitality, personalized service and an intimate knowledge of the natural environment. It has a rich East African/Arabic feel – evinced in both the décor, and the unique and delectable food. The rooms all merge naturally into the surrounding forest and are only moments from the gorgeous silver-white beach of Benguerra Bay. Benguerra is the second largest island in the Bazaruto Archipelago, which broke away from the mainland thousands of years ago. It is famous for its unspoiled white beaches, remarkable dive sites and excellent fishing (subject to a strict “catch & release” policy). Some of the best scuba diving and snorkeling in the world is available off Benguerra’s shores with the surrounding coral reefs rich in sea life.
There are four different kinds of accommodation at Benguerra – each with their unique characteristics and attractions: 2-Bungalows, 2-Cabanas, 10-Casitas and 1-Villa For this package, price is based staying in a Bungalow. The Bungalows are designed to optimize the beautiful island experience. They have no windows or doors and the sea breeze moves quietly and freely through all the rooms. Blinds are hung on the windows and can be drawn for enhanced privacy. All Bungalows have overhead fans, ensuite bathrooms with showers, and mosquito nets over the beds. There are 2 Bungalows in total. Each has a sea-view and is no more than 15m from the beach.
