Merged into a natural acacia forest bordering Benguerra Bay and encircled by silver beaches, coral reefs and turquoise seas, this up-market Lodge offers exclusivity in a tranquil setting. At Benguerra Lodge, where lodge policies are intricately inter-related with the marine eco-system and the local population, relaxation within an African island reserve is the name of the game. While you may simply choose to recline within the shade of a beach umbrella, there are many wonderful activities to enjoy. Benguerra Lodge offers: Snorkeling - Scuba diving - Deep sea fishing - Saltwater fly fishing - Bird watching - Dhow cruising Island walks and cultural tours to the local village - Visits to unique freshwater lakes ...and more. Choose to do as much?. or as little ??as you wish! The Villa: Benguerra Lodge exudes an East-African-cum- Arabic decor in line with the ancient tradition of the Archipelago, once the playground of the Queen of Sheba and the trading route of old Arabia. While it is an island lodge, care has been taken to maintain the feeling that one is nevertheless embarking upon an African marine safari. At night one may experience the wonderful whisper of a gentle sea breeze brushing the cheek or the squeak of clean sand as one walks along the half-moon beach of Benguerra Bay on a full-moon night. The main lodge building comprising reception offices, lounge, dining room and patio area is flanked by eleven comfortable thatched chalets. On the large patio, guests can enjoy a cocktail and sit back after the day's events. The chalets merge within the surrounding indigenous Acacia and Natal Mahogany forest. However, each chalet is no more than 20 meters from the beach and each has a veranda/balcony looking out to sea. All chalets are double rooms (7 double bedded rooms and 4 twin bed rooms) with en-suite bathroom and shower. Meals are fresh from the sea, with delicacies such as crayfish, crab and calamari tantalisingly prepared or exotic Portuguese dishes. Lunches are relaxed affairs served in different settings and always with unsurpassed personal attention. There's much to discover on and around the Island. On foot or in open land rovers, the choice of how you explore Benguerra Island is entirely up to you. The lodge takes great pride in ensuring that guests are made to feel welcome and to participate in whatever they wish . To this extent, each evening, staff circulate amongst guests and establish what their requirements for the following day are. Whether you wish to participate in some magnificent snorkelling or try your hand at some exciting saltwater flyfishing from a boat, you will have an experienced guide with you, ensuring a wonderful day in the Archipelago is enjoyed to the fullest.
