STAND-UP PADDLE BOARDING
Glide over the turquoise waters of the lagoon, and slowly meander through the maze of mangroves, on a stand-up paddleboard. Or head out past the lagoon, into the aqua blues of the ocean, enjoying the birds-eye view of the marine world below you.
Stand-up Paddle Boarding has been a sport of choice for hundreds of years for Polynesians, and in recent decades, with surfers, for training purposes. Over the past few years, it has become a favorite water sports activity worldwide.
Coral Lodge is the perfect playground for both beginner and advanced Stand-up Paddle Boarders.
The canoes are available on a complimentary basis. Subject to availability.
CANOEING
Discover the beauty of the lagoon, our bright sandy beaches, and the meandering mangroves, in one of our Coral Lodge canoes.
Our canoes are designed for either one person or two persons to share paddling duties, and have more opportunities for holiday selfies!
The canoes are provided for use on a complimentary basis. Subject to availability.
WHALE WATCHING AND DOLPHIN SIGHTINGS
Coral Lodge has a prime location for sightings of Humpback Whales. Sightings usually occur each year from August until October, as the whales migrate from the Antarctic to our warmer waters of Mozambique, to mate and give birth.
Bottlenose dolphins and Humpback dolphins are also frequent sightings during July through to September.
Coral Lodge offers Half-day sailing experience to view the whales and dolphins by traditional boat or in a motorised boat.
See our Coral Lodge Activities List for our rates.
EXPLORE ILHA DE MOZAMBIQUE
A visit to Coral Lodge is not complete without a visit to Ilha De Mozambique, commonly known as Mozambique Island.
This magical island is the only UNESCO World Heritage Site in Mozambique and is steeped in centuries of history and culture.
Just 3km in length, and approximately 600meter’s at its widest, you can discover the island in a day.
Coral Lodge offers daily return transfers to the island, one of which is complimentary during your stay, then any further trips are at an additional cost.
BAOBAB TREE PICNICS AND SUNDOWNERS
The ancient baobab tree found tucked around the peninsular of Coral Lodge creates an idyllic setting to watch the African sunset beyond our shores.
We will pack a picnic basket filled with delicious delicacies and some of your favourite chilled beverages to savour as the sun goes down over a Mozambican paradise.
