-
Lying within the Quirimbas archipelago off the remote Mozambique northern coast, crescent-shaped Vamizi Island is a slender coral-fringed paradise of largely untouched beauty. The island is a sanctuary, small and intimate, offering the definitive luxury of your own private island.
- The island remained largely unexplored until Christopher Cox and Dr Julie Garnier, visited on holiday and were astounded by what they saw. Vamizi is home to a staggering variety of flora and fauna including 112 species of birds along with one of the most diverse coral reefs in the world. Just twelve kilometers long and one kilometer wide and fringed with gently-shelving beaches and calm waters, this is a haven for both adults and children alike.
- The island's rich natural resources are now carefully monitored, and the island's native fishermen are trained to monitor green and hawksbill turtles, dugongs and humpback whales, and encouraged to fish sustainably.
- The island houses just 12 luxury beach villas, each with its own private sun deck, and each built in keeping with the ethos of the project. These villas ensure that the Maluane Project can continue to support marine research, community outreach and direct conservation initiatives in the area.
- We are offering you the chance to experience this untouched paradise staying in one of the luxury beach villas for six nights with full board.
Bid for a week that will make you... more interesting at dinner parties.
