Whatever style of beach holiday you want, we can find something to suit, the genteel charm of Plettenberg Bay; 5 star luxury in Mauritius or laid back islands in Mozambique. Plettenberg Bay is a busy seaside town overlooking long stretches of sandy beach and the Indian Ocean. There is plenty to do aside from the beach such as walking, golfing and shopping. The water is not suitable for bathing all year round, and can be quite cold out of season. The bay has whales and dolphins at certain times of year, and there is plenty of water-based activities. The Plettenberg is an elegant and exclusive hotel, 5 star luxury, and a firm favourite with its many repeat guests that make The Plettenberg their annual retreat. Bazaruto Archipelago Both of the properties we feature, on Bazaruto & Benguerua Islands offer idyllic beach front chalets, which look out over the crystal clear waters of this unspoilt marine reserve. Indigo Bay also has a hotel style complex and is larger with more activities, especially for children. Marlin Lodge is solely made up of chalets all with air conditioning and luxury en suite facilities and has a more laid back feel about it. For a really relaxed hide away in the most perfect turquoise sea, the Quirimbas Islands offer you a chance to get away from it all. At present flights are not direct, stopping via the Mozambique capital of Maputo, but this is set to change. Matemo Island Resort accommodation is in thatched chalets, all with air conditioning and en suite facilities. The diving and snorkelling around the islands are superb with an abundance of marine life in the conservation area. There is a great deal to see and visit on the surrounding islands including the old Portuguese Fort and Slave Trading market.
