Zavora Lodge is situated on one of the finest stretches of coastline in the Inhambane province.  The lodge consists of a bar and restaurant, beachfront houses, bungalows and campsites.  Some campsites are on the seaside of the dune and the bungalows and more campsites are situated behind the dune on well-grassed shady areas. The lodge is considered a rustic resort.  The excellent fishing and unspoilt beauty of miles and miles of coastline is what makes Zavora Lodge a unique holiday destination. 

To get there one travels +/- 10km North of Inharrime on the ENI main road, turning right at the Zavora Lodge sign.   After 17km along a reasonable dirt road one arrives at Zavora Lodge.

 

Zavora is recognized to be one of the best fishing areas in Mozambique and is frequented by many avid fishermen and woman.  Launching is done from the bay that is protected by a reef.  This reef also creates a natural tidal pool that is excellent for snorkelling and swimming.  The location of the bar, restaurant and deck offers a magnificent view of the Zavora reef and it’s bay.  Plenty of Humpback whales are sighted from the deck of the bar during June to November.  Occasionally Eagle and Manta Rays burst from the surface in brief flights as well as the streamlined and graceful Sailfish.  Dolphins are regularly seen feeding and playing in the bay.  Away from the sea, quad bike excursions to the inland lakes are an experience not to be missed.

 

With all the above and personalized hospitality, your stay at Zavora Lodge will be a memorable one.
