Mozambique

Mozambique has relatively recently opened up to tourists and is quickly becoming a favourite for many visitors to Africa. With 2500 km of coastline, idyllic white sand islands, turquoise waters, exceptional scuba diving and snorkelling, wild National Parks and a vast expanse of untrammelled Africa as you head further north it is clear why.

Tofo is a lively little coastal town in the south of Mozambique.  One of the few places where you may snorkel with the immense, but placid whale sharks year round and an excellent location to scuba dive with Manta Rays.  Head a little further north along the coast and you reach the Bazaruto Archipelago or the Quirimbas Archipelago.  Explore the tropical waters around these islands on traditional dhow sailing boats, drift along walls of coral marvelling at the diversity of colourful fish, or explore some of the excellent scuba diving sites.

The appeal of Mozambique for a holiday is certainly not touristy hotspots or attractions, of which there are relatively few, but much more its vibrant culture and people who will welcome you to Mozambique with pride. In a sense, Mozambique is a county that wears its heart on its sleeve and its resilient and friendly people will create an atmosphere that you’ll appreciate from the moment you arrive in the country.

Mozambique is perhaps your best opportunity to leave the beaten trail and experience something truly different and unique on your holiday. Still remaining a relatively well kept secret now is the perfect time to sample the authentic Mozambique before it has any chance of being tainted or stripped of its certain undeniable charm.

Further inland, experience the natural wildlife of Gorongosa National Park, a great example of the incredible wilderness waiting to be discovered in Southern Africa.  In the far northwest of the country, away from the better known coastal destinations is another beach haven on the shores of the freshwater Lake Niassa.  Lake Niassa (the Mozambican side of Lake Malawi) also offers incredible snorkelling in sparkling, clear waters.  Conservation efforts in this part of the country are also seeing the return of a lot of the wildlife species that were abundant here in the past.

When you combine the gorgeous, picturesque beaches with the vast, wild and exciting landscape Mozambique has to offer, you have the perfect cocktail for honeymooners and it’s a wonder that anyone would consider another holiday destination.

  • Lake Niassa, Mozambique

    The northern regions of Mozambique hide many of the country’s best kept secrets. The remote wilderness and spectacular coastline remains relatively untouched by tourism. This is one part of Africa that is often the topic of “Have you been to...?” conversations, but is still rarely visited.
