Azura Benguerra Island

Overview

Paradise discovered

Azura Benguerra is located on the north west of Benguerra Island in the Bazaruto Archipelago and is Mozambique’s first luxury eco-friendly resort. Located in the heart of a marine national park, guests can expect an astonishing stretch of pristine beach enveloped by crystal clear waters where local dhows ply their trade on the sparkling seas.

Activities at Azura Benguerra are plentiful. World-class diving instructors will provide an over the top scuba diving and snorkeling experience along the fantastic coastline and adrenaline-filled catch and release deep sea fishing trips can also be arranged. If relaxation is your goal, you won’t be disappointed. There is an African spa to indulge in, lounge around in the vibey Star Bar, enjoy fine dining at the Jellyfish Restaurant, or simply rest on the plump pillows shaded by thatched beachside salas and take in the incredible ocean views.

Hand-built and operated in partnership with the local community, the islanders benefit from the resort’s beauty just as much as guests. Only 20 villas exist in this island oasis, with all the luxurious comforts one could wish for including private pools. Mozambican butler-hosts will attend to your every need, taking your Azura experience to the next level. This is the captivating island escape you always imagined.
