Horse riding activities are not available from 22 April to 4 June as the horses undergo annual vaccinations. We apologise for any inconvenience.

Bazaruto is an ornithologist’s dream come true. The island is home to over 180 species of bird, including a vast range of Palearctic migrants, 26 species of waders, and huge flocks of pelicans and flamingos who frequent the coastal lakes and tidal pools.

Set out on an organised nature tour, visiting the best bird watching spots with a knowledgeable local guide.

The Bazaruto Archipelago has been a National Park since 1971, and a strong marine conservation policy of tag and release ensures sustainability, and many a prize catch. Anglers looking to test their skills can try their hand at catching sailfish and wahoo with our exclusive Bazaruto fishing experience.

The Archipelago is also renowned as Africa’s most productive area for black, blue and striped marlin, with black marlin catches coming in at a staggering 1000 pounds, while kingfish, queen fish, barracuda, mackerel and yellow fin tuna are just a few more of the delights in store with fishing in Mozambique.

Set out on an offshore boat trip to view some of the Indian Ocean’s most mesmerising sea creatures. Spot dolphins dancing in the waves. Look out for humpback whales from August to October, and whale sharks from April to July.

Turtles also frequent the waters, and leatherback, loggerhead and green turtles often come ashore to lay their eggs on Bazaruto’s sandy beaches. Lucky guests may also glimpse the elusive dugong, since Bazaruto boasts the largest population of this rare “sea cow” on the African east coast.

Travel as the locals do and experience authentic Bazaruto by navigating the archipelago’s crystal clear waters in a traditional dhow.

Used throughout the Indian Ocean for thousands of years, these slender long-hulled vessels are the preferred mode of transport for Bazaruto’s traders and fishermen. Enjoy a range of excursions, including a romantic sunset voyage as a perfect end to a day in paradise.

One of the greatest allures of Anantara Bazaruto is its secluded location in the breath-taking Bazaruto Archipelago.

To ensure that this precious marine environment is conserved long into the future, and in line with Anantara’s focus on protecting nature and working alongside local communities, the resort is proudly engaging in a sustainable coral gardening initiative that is the first project of its kind, in co-operation with the Bazaruto Archipelago National Park.

Anantara’s coral gardening initiative will provide guests with a unique and enriching experience in seeing this remarkable project unfold.
