The trip
There are two ways to read this post. The first read it with photos (the best thing); the second reading the text and check if it says something not seen in photos. It is difficult to describe the paradise. Try to imagine.
Imagine an island in the Indian Ocean, eleven miles, in which a native community lives 1.400 people with quiet, slow pace. Imagine that the island has at its heart a freshwater lake in which a group of pink flamingos move slowly under the watchful gaze of two crocodiles. Imagine that stuck to the sea is a huge sand dune, over 20 meters tall and red sand, from which to see the entire island and a perfect sunset. Imagine that under the clear waters are a coral reef where fish take a thousand shapes and colors, inventing it seems that at every glance. Imagine a beach where women spend each morning with children hanging from the back, gesture with his upright and hallmark feature of African women to carry buckets and bags over their heads. Imagine a water in which the old wooden boats spread their sails sewn thousand times and glide slowly lost in the endless blue that surrounds. Imagine eating in the evening what the boats bring in the morning. Imagine a hotel with rooms that go down to almost touch the sea. Imagine you can see every week, sitting on the terrace of your room or on your own hammock, a sunset reddening the horizon. Imagine a great meal washed down with excellent wines in that remote anything. Imagine a dinner in the sand, seaside, with the only light of torches and a bonfire, together with extending a blanket and pillows where you take a drink. Imagine the smell of fresh seafood and smoke escaping from two large barbecues. Imagine an outdoor shower, in your room, watching thousands of stars. Imagine you can go diving, surf fishing or hidden piece of ocean that. Imagine a night with the only noise of wandering slow wave. Imagine nice people, smiling with that conversation while preparing the cocktail of the day in a bar made of wood and straw. Imagine the paradise. Imagine Berenguerua Island, a Mozambique. Imaginen el hotel Marlin Lodge. I really do not need to say anything. There are reports to the words that have surplus.
PD. For lovers of fishing and diving, The hotel has two career centers in Caada activity. They are two of the activities that customers bring to this island. There are plenty of chance to see whale sharks and blankets in the dives. Fishery, tuna being cut a cook in the photos above was caught in the morning by a Dutch staying at the lodge.

The road
From Maputo, capital, is flown with Air Mozambique to Vilankulo. The round trip price is around 400 U.S. dollars. From Johannesburg there is a direct flight to Vilankulo. Marlin Lodge staff will pick them up at the airport and from there it goes to the island motor (30 minutes).
They can also rent a car in Maputo, but there are many companies and the price is expensive. It is however the best option if you want is to know the country and stop at different beaches and parks.
The last option is to go on plates (Local buses). It's a long journey, hacerl should probably in two days and not comfortable, but really fun and cheap. This option is only recommended for very adventurous and very fair Novaya budget.
A nap
Marlin Lodge Hotel. (www.marlinlodge.co.za). All rooms face the sea. The staff is efficient and charming. It is simply a luxury hotel. Every detail is thought.
A table set
The. Food is one of the attractions of Marlin Lodge garndes. You eat fresh seafood prepared with recipes. It also has a good selection of wines. Excellent.
