The first half of the year has slipped by quickly. It is now winter in Mozambique, but still an excellent time to visit. The weather on Benguerra Island is very pleasant and guests can look forward to warm sunny days with temperatures ranging between 25 & 30ºC, and hardly any rain.

The lodge was busy in May, with many pre- & post Indaba visitors, who were treated to our unique blend of Benguerra hospitality. The personal atmosphere of the lodge, combined with the warm friendly staff and great location was what impressed most. The spacious Casitas and being spoilt by your own personal butler was also considered a special treat.
On one Sunday during these visits it was soccer time on the island – Benguerra Lodge versus the Local Island team. We joined other spectators to support our players, and in between the adult action, the children had their own little match imitating the adults, to great pleasure of the crowd.

Graham Pollard, one of our resident fly fishing guides, caught his first Sailfish of the season in June – the picture of the proud fisherman is herewith. The catch and release of all species is encouraged at Benguerra Lodge and Sailfish is one of the species also tagged for research purposes.
