Castelo Do Mar Lodge

Castelo do Mar Lodge: A Unique Coastal Escape in Mozambique

Nestled on the scenic Linga Linga Peninsula in Inhambane Province, Castelo do Mar Lodge offers a distinctive and tranquil getaway. Accessible by boat from Inhambane or Maxixe, this hidden gem is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers. Enjoy fishing, diving, and birdwatching in the lush mangroves. The lodge is home to a resident dugong and boasts pristine tidal islets and secluded beaches, making it an ideal spot for a peaceful retreat. Due to rising tides, locals refer to this retreat as an “island,” adding to its unique charm.

Inhambane town, located 478 kilometers north of Maputo, is a gateway to this beautiful region. Known for its palm plantations and production of cashews, coconuts, and tangerines, Inhambane has a rich history that dates back to the 10th century. Vasco da Gama’s historic landing in 1498 marks the town’s cultural significance. Its charming mix of old-world and modern influences offers an unforgettable experience for visitors.

At Castelo do Mar Lodge , guests enjoy excellent meals at our Portuguese restaurant. Rates include two daily meals: breakfast and dinner. Indulge in the freshest seafood Mozambique has to offer, served with passion and flair. Our restaurant’s décor reflects the history of the Norwegian whaling station once located here, adding a unique atmosphere to your dining experience.

The lodge also offers a range of activities for every type of guest. Try non-motorized watersports such as kayaking and gypsy sailing. For diving enthusiasts, we provide instructors and rental equipment for exceptional dive sites. Explore the nearby whale boat wreck for an unforgettable snorkeling experience. Anglers will love deep-sea fishing, with opportunities to catch marlin and barracuda, and our Tag and Release conservation initiative ensures the preservation of local marine life.

Whether you seek relaxation, adventure, or a mix of both, Castelo do Mar Lodge offers the perfect Mozambique beach escape.
