WHERE WOULD YOU FIND LINENE?
Linene Island Resort is situated in the Bazaruto archipelago, on a small island in a tidal estuary on the East side of San Sebastian peninsula. This is just South of the town of Vilancoulos in Mozambique. The lodge is reachable by boat only. Transfers are done with the lodge boats between Vilancoulos and the lodge whenever required. At times transfers can be delayed because of tidal movements, as it may not be possible to access the channels at low tides. If a flight arrives in Vilancoulos over a low spring tide guests may have to relax for a couple of hours and enjoy a drink at Smugglers Bar while waiting for the water to come in. In extreme cases it may even be necessary to overnight in Vilancoulos and leave for Linene the following morning. This does not happen often, but if it does the accommodation in Vilancoulos is paid for by Linene.

About Linene Island

STAFF
About Linene Island Management Staff at the lodge are South Africans, the rest of the staff are local Mozambicans. The locals are very friendly and helpful, but are still learning to speak English. Please remember that these are people who have grown up in the bush without electrical appliances and modern technology. Should you have questions of a technical nature rather direct them at the management staff.

MALARIA
The lodge does fall within the malaria belt, and necessary precautions should be taken. We recommend guests to consult their doctors about malaria before traveling to Mozambique. The risk of contracting malaria at Linene is reasonably low as there are no local villages in the area, but it is still worth taking precautions. Mosquito nets are supplied in all the rooms.

CURRENCY
The lodge accepts rands, so there is no need to change money for a visit to Linene. There are no credit card facilities however, and payments for boat hire, fuel and bar accounts will need to be settled in cash.
