The Lodge is set on a 10 Hectares (ca. 25 acres) plot, with 400 mts front to the sea and 250mts deep, amongst pure nature, within the ZIT (tourism designated area), following the ARCO DO NORTE tourism development plan for the North of Mozambique done by USAID for the Mozambican Goverment. All the land on this ZIT area has been already concessioned for tourism development.
