Magaruque Island

You can walk around the small island of Magaruque in an afternoon and see hundreds of pansy shells exposed by the low tide. The island has a deep channel running just metres from the western shore, ensuring great snorkelling and scuba diving.

On most afternoons dolphins pass within metres of the beach. In colonial days the island's hotel was popular, but it's now in bad repair and there is talk about an upmarket lodge being established to develop the enormous potential of this island. If you want to visit the island for the day it is easily accessible from Benguerra and Vilanculos.
