About Vilanculos
Vilanculos is the laid-back springboard to Mozambique's Bazaruto Archipelago National Park, five dune islands rising from a marine reserve of impossibly graded blues. Dhow safaris sail to Bazaruto and Benguerra's giant dunes and sandbanks; Two Mile Reef offers superb snorkelling and diving; and the flats hold the Indian Ocean's last viable dugong population. After the bush, this is the ocean chapter: saltwater fly fishing, island picnics and sunsets the colour of mango flesh.
