Vamizi Private Island Mozambique Indian Ocean

VAMIZI ISLAND
Vamizi Island is truly a stunning private island where luxury and nature meet. The picturesque villas over look the beach and come with private chef, butler and other friendly staff.
Set among the Quirimbas Archipelago, in a marine conservation area off the coast of northern Mozambique, the idyllic coral island of Vamizi private island beckons to lovers of sun, sand and azure waters. Blessed with a tropical climate and offering immaculate powder-soft beaches that rival those of the Maldives, Vamizi is the perfect escape for families and groups.
Seemingly endless stretches of wild, deserted beaches lend themselves to quiet hour-long walks, as pristine Indian Ocean waters lap along the coastline, enticing snorkellers and scuba divers to explore its kaleidoscopic reefs. Tuck into a mouth-watering castaway picnic, toast the sunset from a traditional dhow, try your hand at deep-sea fishing and welcome the seasonal arrival of baby green turtles as they hatch from protected sites along the island. This is a destination to be explored at your own pace. A setting to not only reconnect with loved ones but with yourself, and the opportunity to enjoy island living at its finest.
The waters surrounding Vamizi Island boast some of the most significant and endangered habitats and wildlife in the western Indian Ocean, with over 180 species of pristine coral and over 400 species of reef fish. They have been deemed one of the healthiest coral reef ecosystems in the world, drawing in diving enthusiasts from around the globe – most notably to Neptune’s Arm, which features as one of the ultimate dive sites to explore. The island is also a sanctuary for mangrove forests, one of the earth’s most threatened habitats.
Six individually designed luxury villas are scattered along the edge of idyllic Vamizi Island. Whether it’s right on the silky-soft beachfront or protected by the mottled shade of the island’s verdant forest, you will find the perfect hideaway for your ultimate beach getaway.
Vamizi Island’s selection of luxury villas have been built according to stringent sustainability practices. Each villa has been creatively designed to offer unique architecture that blends effortlessly with the island’s idyllic surrounds, with hints of the multi-cultural influences of Mozambique.
The private villas are perfect for reconnecting with family and friends. Each villa is individually decorated in its own elegant style with ensuite bedrooms, spectacular dining rooms and peaceful lounging spaces around private pools or the beach. 
The private chef and personal butler will ensure all your needs are met, from tailor made menus to organising one of the many adventures available on the island.
