The tiny peninsula of Linga Linga is the northern peninsula on the Bay of Inhambane. This area is called "Linga Linga".

Surrounding the villa are coconut forests, as well as Mangrove Swamps. Because in exceptionally high tides, the waters rise over the sands making access by road difficult, Linga Linga is often referred to by the locals as an island. Although it is possible to reach the peninsula with a 4x4 it is much more convenient and closer by boat transfer from Inhambane.
