Immerse yourself in the local customs and traditions of the fisherman communities on andBeyond Vamizi Island on a guided tour.
The regular trade breezes and calm seas afforded by the reef to the north of andBeyond Vamizi Island ensure the conditions for sailing are almost always perfect. A selection of Hobie Cats and dinghies are kept at the Dive Centre. Alternatively, more relaxed sunset cruises on a traditional dhow are a fabulous way to see out the day with a glass of chilled wine, whilst searching for dolphins and turtles.
andBeyond Vamizi Island is surrounded by deep water and healthy coral reefs which provide a bountiful habitat for a multitude of fish species. More than 50 sport fishing varieties are present and, while some species are migratory, most do not have to venture far to feed and are present in large numbers year round. The beauty of fishing at Vamizi is in its remoteness – there are almost no other fishing boats in the area allowing guests virtually exclusive rights to the waters. Embark on a thrilling deep-sea fishing excursion, ethically run blue water spearfishing trip or a catch-and-release fly-fishing adventure.
andBeyond Vamizi Island is home to a great variety of flora and fauna. There are a number of trails through the coastal forest and along the beach, stopping off in deserted sandy coves for a cooling swim. To get the most of these walks, it’s best to go early in the morning with your resident guide who will point out samango monkeys and giant coconut crabs as well as a multitude of forest and coastal birds.
Choose from a selection of single or double kayaks and embark on a guided or solo kayaking adventure through the island’s estuary at Muntu Nkulu. Glide effortlessly over glass-like water whilst colourful coral reef fish, turtles and cowrie shells pass just beneath you. Alternatively, drift silently through the mangroves in search of kingfishers, green herons and fish eagles.
andBeyond Vamizi Island’s waters contain a plethora of marine life and have been deemed one of the healthiest coral reef eco-systems in the world. A combination of wild underwater landscapes, the bounty of tropical ocean currents and an abundance of aquatic life, makes Vamizi a truly world-class diving holiday destination. Dive sites are being discovered all the time, catering for all abilities from the novice to the experienced diver and Vamizi’s PADI dive masters and instructors are always on hand to guide or teach.
Grab a snorkel, mask and a set of fins to explore the healthy coral reefs around andBeyond Vamizi Island. The best snorkelling spots are reached by motorboat with a guide, but there is also outstanding snorkelling to be had from the shore. This is a wonderful activity for both children and adults alike!
andBeyond Vamizi Island is home to green sea turtles that come up onto the beach to nest at night. If you’re lucky enough to be there in season, you can witness this amazing sight. When the eggs hatch some baby turtles may be trapped in the sand and these stragglers are saved and released by the Conservation Team; a fantastic activity for children to be involved in!
Between July and September each year the humpback whales pass andBeyond Vamizi Island on their epic voyage from East Africa to Antarctica. They bring their new-born calves with them and the new families enjoy frolicking in the deep water channels around the island. The whale watching trips offer the perfect opportunity to see these incredible animals up close.
