Vilankulo is a coastal town on the shores of the Mozambique Channel that serves as the departure point for boat transfers to the Bazaruto Archipelago. Its waterfront is lined with traditional dhows and the town has a distinctly Swahili character unusual for southern Mozambique. Kitesurfing is the principal beach activity, with reliable trade winds off the channel making it one of the sport's premier sites in the Indian Ocean region.
