I highly recommend visiting this wonderful beach, whether you're interested in kitesurfing or simply staying and enjoying the surroundings! For kitesurfing, this place is excellent. The water is flat and shallow, the wind is smooth and stable, and you won't find many other people on the water. There are just a few fisher boats that you'll need to navigate through. Nércio, the person in charge, is lovely and helpful. He provided us with nice equipment and took care of almost everything (although we had to insist on helping deflate the kites ;)). He was also happy to offer valuable advice for improving our kiting skills. VilanCool is a lovely place with a very friendly staff. They make you feel incredibly welcome and create an atmosphere that feels just like home. The food there is also very nice!

We had a wonderful three-night stay and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The bungalows were incredibly comfortable and brand new, and they were conveniently located just a few steps away from the beautiful white sandy beach. Dalton and his team were incredibly hospitable and made us feel incredibly welcome. They even brought us a delightful dinner right to our bungalow. Dalton also arranged an amazing day trip to the Bazaruto archipelago, which we highly recommend. The trip included a scrumptious lunch featuring grilled chicken, fish, and seafood. Whether you're interested in water sports or not, this is a fantastic place to stay. It's also an excellent spot for kiteboarding. We were genuinely sad to leave!
