Experiences
Villa Coco is so much more than just a luxury holiday destination. The waters of the Bazaruto Archipelago World Heritage Site are an ecological paradise teeming with magnificent sea life. Dolphins, whales, rays, turtles and the endangered dugong swim in the crystal-clear waters of the archipelago that are also home to starfish, seahorses, magnificent corals and an array of beautiful tropical fish.
Whether you prefer the tranquil pastimes of soaking up some gentle tropical sunshine with a good book;
enjoying the cool turquoise waters of our infinity pool; watching the local fisherman pull in their nets in the time-honored process of their forefathers; a lazy sundowner dhow cruise to end off another magical day or if you prefer something a little more energetic and exciting, like the adrenaline rush induced by the screaming reel of a solidly struck fishing lure; the anticipation of a snorkeling safari to "the aquarium" at Two Mile Reef and a chance encounter with wild dolphins, turtles or the elusive dugong; island hopping from one unspoilt and untouched beach to another in search of the iconic pansy shell; the thrill of skipping across the shallow azure waters on your kiteboard with the wind in your hair, powered by the self same trade winds that have driven the lateen rigged dhows across these tranquil waters for millennia before us ...
These are experiences that cannot easily be distilled into words, they are the essence of your holiday, your perfect island moments and the core of memories that will last a lifetime.
Our Villa Coco team is dedicated to giving you the best possible experience. Please talk to us about the various experiences and we will arrange to put you in touch with the relevant operator. All excursions are optional extras unless indicated otherwise in the rates package.
