Northern Mozambique

Mozambique becomes increasingly wilder and more beautiful further north, yet it still offers luxury and exclusivity for those who desire it. The city of Pemba offers exquisite sandy beaches where visitors can walk for miles without encountering another soul, while just a short boat trip off the mainland will take you to hundreds of small islands. Among the most captivating of these islands is the tiny ‘Mozambique Island’, a 500-metre-wide three-kilometre-long crescent-shaped islet dotted with historical churches, chapels, palaces, forts and mosques. The idyllic Quirimbas Archipelago features white-sand beaches lapped by turquoise waters surrounded by coral reefs teeming with marine life.
