IBO ISLAND LODGE

Nestled in the Quirimbas Archipelago and nominated for World Heritage status, Ibo Island forms one of a string of over thirty islands that are both remote and untouched by the modern world. Steeped in history with habitation dating back to the 16th century, when it was an important trading post, Ibo is one of the oldest inhabited islands in Mozambique.
