Overview
Why charter a superyacht in Mozambique?
Mozambique is one of Africa's most exciting superyacht destinations, a 2,500km coastline of pristine tropical islands, coral reefs, and marine life encounters that rival the world's best. The Bazaruto Archipelago, a chain of five islands surrounded by the largest marine park in the Indian Ocean, offers turquoise lagoons, pink flamingos, and some of the last dugong populations in East Africa.
The remote Quirimbas Archipelago in the north. 32 coral islands, offers genuine expedition yachting: pristine reefs, Swahili trading history, and an atmosphere of untouched wilderness. Mozambique's warm Indian Ocean waters host humpback whales, whale sharks, manta rays, and dolphins in extraordinary abundance.
