She was super nice, calm, clear and encouraging, both in the confined dives and the first 2 open water dives (the last 2 were done with a different dive centre due to a lack of time on my part).
The entire dive centre was nice and organized. They were very helpful in helping me plan splitting my certification between the 2 different dive centres.
The dives themselves were very cool, with lots to see and the Benguela and Bazaruto islands, were we stopped for a bit, were also great.
Overall, great dive centre, great people and beautiful place and dives.Written 14 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

From the first contact at the booking stage to our departure, we were blown away by the holiday. Stunning location, superbly schooled horses, sensational food, great people and happy holiday memories that I still dream of.
An absolute must for riders looking to elevate their horses riding experience.Written 8 May 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Clara W8 contributionsThis was a fantastic trip to the Bazaruto archipelago (Bazaruto Island, Two Mile Reef, and Benguerra Island), thanks to Nelson and the crew. Communication was excellent from the start, with a clear outline of the day and timings of activities. The food for lunch was fantastic and they catered for several different dietary requirements of the group. Although the weather had not been ideal, they picked a weather window and I felt safe and well looked after. I would highly recommend a day trip to the Bazaruto archipelago with Sunset Dhow Safari!Written 24 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Pumpkin_ciccioParis, France72 contributionsWe had an absolutely fabulous time on our 5-day dhow trip around the Bazaruto archipelago. The islands are stunning and the crew went out of their way to make sure my kids (8, 10 and 12) enjoyed the trip. The food was also amazing, especially considering it was all cooked while we sailed. The accommodation was wonderful, both Kerry's place on the coast - where Kerry was a fantastic host (and great cook!) - and Zanguelemo lodge on Bazaruto.Written 15 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- hardusvermaakPretoria, South Africa2 contributionsAbsolutely amazing! Andrew and his experienced staff looked after us like gold and the reef was spectacular! With amazing sightings! Had an amazing lunch on the island as well. 10/10Written 2 October 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jude Ussy4 contributionsLast week I took some students (12 - 13 year old children) to Jay's place and as always, it was as incredible experience.
Jay's Canoe trip starts from his magical piece of paradise, situated right on the Govuru river, there's nowhere else quite like it in Mozambique.
If you're staying in or near Vilankulo, you must go on a Canoe trip with Jay, there is nothing he doesn't know about the local flora and fauna, he is an expert guide, and a really nice guy!
Thanks Jay, we'll be back soon for more river adventures :-)Written 21 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I had never been kiting before and he offered clear instruction and hands on learning which made me feel very safe in many different wind conditions. He was personable and receptive to my learning pace, and I had a really great time. 10/10 recommend him as an instructor. The school had many different kites and quality equipment for different conditions. The beach is nice to learn because you can stand when learning.Written 13 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Miles K23 contributionsWe stayed for four nights and we’re really sad to leave, we had a 2 room bungalow which was really spacious with two bathrooms and a big balcony and full kitchen.
We did not kitesurf but spoke to people who did and were very happy with the service.
The manager Dalton was super helpful and all the staff were really friendly.
The location is good with the Boabab bar and restaurant 5 min walk along the beach for near by meals. We walked 15 mins into the central market or dalton will arrange Tuk tuks.
A special place on a beautiful beach.Written 3 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Antonio ensured that everyone on board remained safe with clear and precise instructions in a friendly manner. We had some fishing success and just a great time.Written 8 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ZeltiaMCBadalona, Spain194 contributionsMoz islands and safaris
Nelio, the owner is a very good guy, the communication with him was easy and eficient. He organized for us a kind of private tour to Bazaruto, Berenguera and 2 mile reef. We're only 4 people at the boat, another couple and us, appart from the tripulation(Osbaldo, the captainamd guide, Arnaldo, the cooker and Josue, the guitarrist), normally they go with 8 people.
Osbaldo is a very good guy, he saw dolphins and 1 dugongo on the way, such an incredible view he has! Osbaldo saw one turtle on snorkelling in 2 mile reef, and Josue played the guitar very well while we were having lunch. The lunch was great! Fresh fish, seefood, rice, beans, salad, pinneaple and bananas. Beverages were including.
We've spent such a nice time. We recommend 100% moz islands and safaris!

- Companion175238718162 contributionsPaul was a great guide. He was very flexible when arranging pick up times and tailored the tour of the area to our needs. It was really nice to get an overview of the area and see a more authentic side to Vilanculos.Written 26 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
