History and culture in the Quirimbas
An ancient island trading post with a fortress, colonial buildings and a delightfully slow pace of life
Ibo Island lies in the Indian Ocean, off the coast of northern Mozambique, and forms part of the Quirimbas National Park. Ibo is an ancient trading post and was used by the Portuguese who built a fort on the island, which still stands today.
Ibo island is a great location for diving enthusiasts and those searching for marine life, or those wishing to relax on the white sands of the beach. The area is also ideal to explore on a dhow or kayak safari. The island is an ideal romantic getaway and for those seeking a slower pace of life.
