Looking for a unique vacation idea? Try Kisawa Sanctuary, a new resort on Mozambique’s Benguerra Island.
, a new resort on Mozambique’s Benguerra Island, almost no matter where you’re coming from. I first flew 15 hours from New York to Johannesburg, arriving too late to catch a connecting flight. The next morning, it was a two-hour plane trip to the resort town of Vilankulo, where the sun-cracked tarmac was visually at odds with the modern glass-and-metal airport that stood before it—an emblem of Mozambique’s rising tourism industry.
The Bazaruto Archipelago, officially a national park, comprises five islands, renowned for their white beaches and diverse marine life—the second largest of them all, Benguerra, has quietly emerged as a wild and stealthy getaway. When I pull up to its shores, only a handful of Kisawa’s thatched roofs are visible amid the African bush. Kisawa founder Nina Flohr says she took cues from the tropical modernist movement as well as the work of local craftsmen for Kisawa’s integrated ambience.
So goes the ethos of Kisawa, a retreat radical in both its remoteness and freedom, where attentiveness is balanced with adventurism. Any guest embarking on the journey to get here, the resort recognizes, must have a desire for exploration. So Kisawa indulges it: Activities include overnight glamping on the dunes, sunset cocktails on a traditional dhow, and expeditions to spot dugongs .
