Welcome to Magaruque Island

MAGARUQUE ISLAND is unfortunately closed to the public at this time. We are unsure when it will re-open. Please contact us for other options in this area of Mozambique.

The island is 1.6 Km long and 1.4 Km wide, the third largest in the Bazaruto archipelago. It is the closest island to Vilanculos, and it has a permanent deep water channel immediately in front of the Villas enabling guests to experience reef snorkelling on their doorstep.

Extensive tidal flats on the landward side create a mosaic of sapphire, indigo and aquamarine with the tides, and the area boasts 2000 species of fish including the much sought after Marlin and Sail Fish.

Just ten minutes by plane from the mainland, this private island offers seclusion and relaxation together with the natural beauty associated with this tropical paradise.
