Whale Watching
Our coastline is incredibly rich in food and attracts more large sea animals than anywhere else in the world. Every year pods of Humpback whales embark on their annual migration from Antarctica to the coast of Mozambique to mate and calve in one of the lengthiest migrations in the world. From June to October, you can see these majestic marine giants along the Vilanculos coast. Watching them breach the water in a display of aerial acrobatics is truly breathtaking and something not to be missed. Can be organised with our local operators.
Dhow Trips

You are likely to spot whales, dolphins, turtles and the only viable dugong population remaining in this part of the world. So bring your camera, and capture the freedom of unspoilt beach’s, solitude, and stunning scenery on a traditional sailing dhow, locally built by hand in the age old method and comfortably furnished is the idyllic way to watch the sun setting over the sea.
