Indian Ocean sunrises, turquoise waters, fantastic snorkelling, and some of the best whale watching in Africa is waiting for you on Mozambique’s vast sweep of unspoiled coastline. Yet it is still an undiscovered gem, waiting to be explored. The coast is renowned for a sea that’s rich in coral and fish, an ideal location for both scuba diving and big game fishing.The South Coast is home to a wide variety of beautiful and remote lodges, it’s a perfect location for a beach escape with that something extra as there’s just so much to experience in this region.Alongside your time on the beach it’s worth considering spending a night in the vibrant capital Maputo, a colourful city with a great music and art scene. Maputo can also provide a stopover if you’re looking to explore more of the country and head further north up the coast towards the Benguerra or Quirimbas Archipelagos.The proximity of the southern beaches of Mozambique to the border with South Africa also opens up the opportunity to create cross-border itineraries, combining some exceptional safari in Kwa-Zulu Natal with world-class marine activities – a perfect holiday combination!
The Quirimbas Archipelago is a jewel-like string of perfect coral islands running along the northernmost section of the Mozambican coast towards the border with Tanzania. Made up of just a few dozen islands, this remote area is about as Robinson Crusoe as it gets.
You’ll find the Bazaruto Archipelago just off the central Mozambican coast. A grouping of six white sand islands that are either a short helicopter flight or slightly longer boat journey from the mainland.
