Bemugi's Place

Bemugi’s is a fab place for those who’d like to bask on the beach, and it’s equally excellent for folks who like a bit more activity on their island break. Have a word with the team on site and they’ll sort you with days of scuba diving, snorkelling, wakeboarding or tubing, wildlife-spotting boat trips or leisurely sunset cruises. Although Inhaca often calls itself an island, it’s actually more of a peninsula – and a handy result of that is that mainland outings are on the cards here too. Most handily, that means you can set forth in search of land-dwelling beasts easily enough: the Maputo Special Reserve is around an hour’s drive away, and the Maputo Elephant Reserve West Gate two hours. If you’re moving on, or seeking a snifter of urbanism to bring you back to real life, it’ll take you four hours or so to drive to Maputo for some great galleries and other cultural happenings. The fort and the fish market are top stops in the capital too.
