In December 2005, several hours' flight north, a lodge opened up on Vamizi, a beautiful crescent-shaped island in a very isolated location near the Tanzanian border. Vamizi is the first of several lodges planned by the conservation-minded investors of the Cabo Delgado Biodiversity & Tourism Project - also known as Maluane. After this, they plan similar lodges on Rongui, Macaloe, and in the mainland's Messalo Wildlife Area.
We visited Vamizi twice in 2005, as it was being built. Set in the forest's fringe, its 12 vast luxury beach villas have been built to a staggering quality beside an endless beach. This will be the ultimate Africa getaway, with excellent snorkelling and diving right off the island.
For 2006 if you want the adventure of seeing one of Africa's top beach destinations as it evolves, before anyone else, then talk to us soon!
