Pomene & Barra Lodge

16 Days London to London [HB]

Only a 30 minute flight from Inhambane Airport is Pomene Lodge. This makes an ideal opportunity to combine both Barra and Pomene Lodges for a two centre holiday in Mozambique.

Pomene Lodge

605 kilometres north of Maputo and 170 kilometres south of Vilanculos, remote Pomene Bay Lodge is situated in one of the most picturesque, and unspoiled, spots in Mozambique.

Situated on a narrow peninsula, the lodge has the Indian Ocean on one side and the crystal clear waters of a spectacular mangrove estuary on the other. All accommodation is just a few steps away from the white sand beach of Pomene Bay.

The bar is a perfect spot to relax at the end of the day and watch the sun set over the estuary and meals can be enjoyed al fresco on the restaurant balcony - with fresh fish and crab on the menu.

There are 12 world class dive sites, with many more to be explored and a astounding density and variety of marine life. The dive centre provides all scuba equipment, airfills and regular departures to the reefs with depths varying between 8 and 30 metres and PADI courses can be arranged.
