Benguerra Island is situated 14 kilometres off Mozambique, on the Eastern coast of Africa. Part of the Bazaruto Archipelago, this National Marine Park is home to some of the richest yet least explored subtropical ecosystems in the Indian Ocean.

After touching down in Vilankulos, the Kisawa airpot host will meet and assist guests through immigration - as well as assisting with luggage.
