There aren’t many places on earth where you can experience nature in its most pristine and untouched form. Anvil Bay is one such place. Set on a stunning stretch of coastline in southern Mozambique, this exclusive destination is the ultimate retreat from modern life and all its chaos. White sand beaches, striking turquoise waters, mysterious coastal forests, colourful reefs, bubbling rock pools... you’ll never run out of places to explore and things to see!
The accommodation at Anvil Bay is designed to have as little impact as possible, while still providing all the comforts of home. The camp features just 9 private casinhas, each constructed from canvas and thatch to retain that rustic, natural feeling. Each room has a private deck on its own stretch of beach, and is fully equipped with en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, and outdoor showers. The central area consists of a beach bar, lounge, and restaurant, where you can enjoy sumptuous meals after a working up an appetite exploring the reserve and enjoying the myriad activities on offer.
Go snorkelling, body-boarding, kayaking, paddle-surfing, whale-watching, fishing, beach-biking... explore miles of unspoilt beaches and dune forest trails, head out into the sea on an ocean safari, witness the nesting of turtles between October and January... Anvil Bay is a dream destination for nature-lovers in search of the perfect getaway.
