Travelers seeking a deeply meaningful experience on the southeast coast of Africa will find their paradise at Kisawa Sanctuary, on the wildly beautiful Benguerra Island in Mozambique. The trip ended with an evening cruise aboard a private pontoon the camp's flickering torchlight is the only thing that distracts from the soundlessness of the riverine realm after the sun sets behind the ancient jackalberries. The culinary offerings lean toward veggie-forward recipes and locally inspired flavors instead of the staid red meat and G&Ts of many safaris-my favorite being a char-grilled broccoli with crispy coconut and a lime basil sauce.
There's also a genuine effort at sustainability, thanks to the use of solar electricity and the found materials (including reclaimed-timber slatting) used as architectural elements.
It's an ideal finale to a trip through the greater Okavango region, since it's designed with rest and relaxation in mind. DumaTau-which means "the lion's roar" in the local Setswana language-lies on the migratory path of dozens of species, from big cats to rare birds, and many of them pass within sight of the lounge spaces and pool deck (making early-morning outings unnecessary). It's a complete reimagining of a once rustic retreat, made up of a new eight-tent property on a scenic overlook, where leathery elephants cool themselves in a lagoon below. Perched in the northerly Linyanti Concession along its namesake river, DumaTau is Wilderness Safaris' latest addition to its portfolio.
