Vilanculos, Mozambique

On the beach, at the gateway to Bazaruto

Rua de Outubro, Vilanculos. The estate opens onto the beach, with the Indian Ocean and the Bazaruto Archipelago on the horizon.

Getting here

Jan's 5 Star is a drive-in campsite on Rua de Outubro — most guests arrive by road via the EN1. Check in at reception and settle straight into your stand; each stand fits one camper or caravan, or up to two small tents.

Flying in

Vilankulo Airport (VNX) is a short drive away, with connections through Johannesburg and Maputo, for guests who'd rather fly than drive.

The Bazaruto Archipelago

Dhow safaris, island hopping, snorkelling and diving on two-mile reef depart from the beach in front of the campsite. Operators collect you at the gate.

Around town

Fresh seafood markets, beach restaurants and kitesurfing schools are minutes away in Vilanculos.
