Previously known as Sao Martinho, Bilene is a peaceful holiday town 180km north of Maputo. The Bilene lagoon is a huge stretch of water, about 2km wide and 14km long, reaching depths of 50 metres. The shores are shallow and are ringed by beautiful white sandy beaches with rolling sand dunes and lush tropical vegetation.

Across the Lagoon, about 8 kilometers away from Bilene, at the opposite and upper side of the lagoon lies the beautiful and tranquil village of Nhabanga. The village can only be reached by 4 x 4 or by boat.The sand road to the village is a 23 kilometer stretch that will normally take close to an hour to complete. This remoteness adds to the attraction of the area.

DIRECTIONS
From Maputo, travel on the EN1 north towards Xai Xai. After approximately 150km (when you reach the town of Macia), Turn right at the 'Praia do Bilene' sign – opposite the BP Garage. Continue for approximately 32km to the town of Bilene.

In Bilene at the first circle, take the second left in front of the hotel and continue until you reach a T-Junction. Turn left and continue to the next T-Junction which is the beach road. (Do not take the first and only left hand turnoff). Turn left at the T-Junction and drive past the market. Just past the market, look out for Chin-Chin restaurant and BIM Bank. Between these two building, on your left, is a sand road with various signs to Nhabanga Village and Serenity.

Follow this sand road for approximately 23 kms. There are various turn-offs, but keep on following the signs to Nhabanga. When entering Nhabanga Village, continue straight to the beach, past Lourenco's Bar. When you arrive at the beach, turn left and continue on the beach for approximately 2km, past Villa Nhabanga, until your get to the Serenity sign on the beach.

When the water level at the lagoon is high (May to September), it will be impossible to follow the beach road. In this case, turn left at Lourenco's Bar and continue straight and exit the village. Follow the sand road up the hill, at the top of the hill turn right and descend the hill towards the lagoon. Follow the sand road down to the beach and turn left on the beach. Travel for approximately 150m to Serenity entrance on the beach. If travelling at night, look out for the lighted sign board and a blue light on the beach at the entrance.
