Magical Moments Tour to Inhaca Island

Depart Maputo

• Just across the bay from the port of Maputo is Inhaca Island, a piece of natural paradise - unspoiled forests, grassy plains, breathtaking beaches and coral reefs.

• Your Magical Moments Trip will begin when you meet our representative Sonja at Maputo port where your private ferry awaits you.

• By the time you arrive at Inhaca Island, you will find yourself in island mode.

Maputo from Inhaca

Inhaca Island Arrival

• You will be met here by Manies friendly team who will transfer you to your overnight accommodation – Manico Camp.

• Once settled in, a tour to the Lighthouse is a must.

• You can then make your way to Lucas – a gem of a local, authentic restaurant. Located on the main beach road of Inhaca you will be tempted to stray off the beaten track to barter with the locals for a memento or to share in the experience of an R&R (local rum and raspberry juice) at a local tavern.

Delicious seafood Inhaca

• Situated just to the northwest of Inhaca Island is another smaller island which is uninhabited, called Portuguese Island.

• You will be transported on a local Dhow and once on the island you can amble across the un-spoilt beaches where you will find treasures such as turtle tracks and huge starfish, snorkel in the enclosed lagoon and enjoy the spectacular views.

• Sunday will begin with a hearty breakfast at Manico Camp followed by some world class snorkeling at Coral Gardens.

• Inhaca has some 100 km of coastline, much of it having some of the best coral reefs in the Mozambique Channel. The fish life is virtually untouched and the reefs are unspoiled.

• You can then sit back, relax and enjoy your packed lunch on the beach, before heading back to Inhaca to catch your ferry back to Maputo.
