Benguerua Island, Bazaruto Archipelago

Marlin Lodge

Marlin Lodge is set on Benguerua Island amid translucent waters flecked with dhow sails and rich in marine life - an unspoilt paradise for those seeking a haven of peace.

At Marlin you can't escape the age-old rhythms of Africa, the heady sense of history and each day you'll be reminded of the Archipelago's colourful past as fishermen pole their beautiful dhows - a sight unaltered in centuries - out to catch the wind. The locals continue to live a laid-back island lifestyle. And late at night you may hear the pulse of distant drums.

Scale the highest dunes during a round-the-island tour, or enjoy a catered picnic on a deserted isle.

The crystal clear waters are perfect for scuba diving and snorkelling, as the marine life is simply spectacular.

Slip across translucent shallows on a sailboard, or fly a haul on one of Marlin's catamarans.

And when the day turns, watch the sun set over the ocean while softlysailing along on a dhow sundowner cruise.

Marlin's 19 En-Suite Chalets stretch along the beach of Flamingo Bay. Each sea-facing chalet has a private patio with a walkway down to the sandy white beach. The wood-reed-and-thatch chalets are a blend of elegance and African Island beauty.

Decorated with a hue of creams, browns, and slight blues, the chalets reflect luxury and essential comfort. Drift into a slumber listening to the lap of waves and the breath of trade winds in the palms.

A beautiful lodge in a beautiful setting.
