Dune Boarding

The dunes of Bazaruto Island are of the highest in the archipelago and make for exciting dune boarding. The boards are fairly broad and require very little skill to master. Basically you jump up on your board and whizz down to the bottom!

Horse Riding

There are a number of exciting trails around the island, of varying length and difficulty. Full chaps and riding hats are available. Basic riding lessons are conducted by the Horse Facility Manager at the stables.
 

Watersports

Indigo Bay offers a range of water sports that may be enjoyed in the warm Indian Ocean just off the beach near the lodge. These include waterskiing (wake snake, wake boarding, kneeboarding, doughnutting), non-motorised water sports like kayaks and windsurfers and Hobiecat sailing.

Island Drives

Another special activity at Indigo Bay, involves fascinating drives in our 4x4 vehicle on and around Bazaruto Island. Interesting things to see include; visits to local villages and interaction with the chief, excursions to a 19th century lighthouse, Sailfish Bay on the pristine east shore, and glorious sunsets on the dunes.

Snorkeling

The waters off Bazaruto Island are of such a superb standard that you need not be a scuba diver to enjoy the amazing diversity of the marine riches. There are a number of excellent dive sites where snorkelers will be able to appreciate the stunning tropical reefs, whales, dolphins, marine turtles and other exotic marine life.

Birdwatching

With more than 180 species of birds, a vast range of Palaearctic migrants, 26 species of waders and huge flocks of pelicans and flamingoes which can be seen in and around the coastal lakes and tidal pools, Indigo Bay Island Resort is a bird lovers paradise.

Stargazing

The clear skies above the island are ideal for stargazing. As there is no interfering artificial light from nearby cities nor any pollution in the skies to contend with – this is the perfect place to lie back and study the celestial treasures of Bazaruto Island.
