Azura at Quilalea Activities
It’s just as amazing below the sea, with snorkeling accessible off the beaches and around most of the island, patrolled by huge potato bass and schools of hunting jacks, and a spectacular house reef for diving just a short fin kick away from the main beach. This is paradise for lovers of marine life and marine experiences. The incredible experience of scuba diving and snorkeling is to be had on the beaches and in the turquise waters, but Azura at Quilalea also offers a variety of activities of a different flavour: Island hopping and remote beach picnics, cultural visits including nearby historic Ibo Island, tours of the working coconut plantation on Quirimba Island and the local village, and indulging the senses at the uniquely African spa offering signature treatments based on local ingredients and traditions.
