MOZAMBIQUE Sand dunes on Bazaruto Island

UNTOUCHED white sand dunes stretch for miles around Sailfish Bay, and are ideal for a number of beach activities.

Simply soak up the setting with a cocktail in hand, or explore the area with more adrenaline-filled activities, such as high-speed dune boarding, or a horseback ride. Helicopter transfers to the dunes are available through the lodges and hotels on the island, with travellers best avoiding the rainy season between November and March.
