A day trip to Magaruque Island is a must for families wishing to snorkel or scuba dive in solitude. And it is one of the few places in the Bazaruto Archipelago where it is possible to swim to the reef from shore. Yet you need not be an underwater aficionado to enjoy a trip to Magaruque Island. Hike to the ruins of a 19th century fort. Take a stroll around the island in less than an afternoon. And engage the kids in a search for Pansy shells. At low tide, hundreds of these once fury sea urchins grace the island's shore ensuring many joyful cries of “Hey mom, I found another.”
