At Marlin
you can't escape the age-old rhythms of Africa, the
heady sense of history. There's the legacy of Portuguese
carracks, trading dhows bearing slaves and ivory to the
East and whispered legends of the Queen of Sheba's Ophir
pearls.
Each day you'll be reminded of the Archipelago's
colourful past as fishermen pole their beautiful dhows -
a sight unaltered in centuries - out to catch the wind.
The locals continue to live a laid-back island
lifestyle. And late at night you may hear the pulse of
distant drums.
In a National Marine Park in Mozambique, lies an
Archipelago of off shore islands known as The Bazaruto
Archipelago. There are three main islands known as
Margaruque, Benguera and Bazaruto. On the second largest
island, Benguera lies idyllic Marlin Lodge. |

The Lodge
Marlin's en-suite Chalets
stretch along the beach of Flamingo Bay. Each sea-facing
chalet has a private patio with a walkway down to the sandy
white beach. The elegant elivated wooden structures snakes
along the back of the chalets, connecting them to the main
area. and is beautifully integrated into the sensitive
Island environment.
The wood-reed-and-thatch chalets are a blend of elegance and
African Island beauty. Decorated with a hue of creams,
browns, and slight blues, the chalets reflect luxury and
essential comfort.
The center-piece is a living-dining area where one can
retreat from the African sun, sip on a Marlin Lodge cocktail
or lazily catch up on some reading.
Our freshwater pool is set in a glade of Coconut and Ilala
palms. Upon occasion lunch is served here which creates an
origional African Island setting.
Marlin Lodge cuisine is a colourful and exotic delight...
Venues vairy from, semi-formal in the open air dining room,
to the excuisite beach, for a once in a life time "dining
under the stars"
