Indian Ocean Islands

With a host of exotic island destinations to explore, including Bazaruto, Benguerra, Vilanculos, Inhaca, Quirimbas and Pemba, Mozambique holidays offer the ultimate Indian Ocean escape. Here you can find a host of marine life, from manta rays to turtles, whale sharks, dolphins, whales, tropical fish and many other fantastic underwater wonders that can be seen on scuba diving or snorkeling trips. These islands are easily accessible by boat, and are an excellent day trip option on your Mozambique trip.

Wildlife and Bird life

In addition to the abundance of marine life in Mozambique, you can also experience the rich wildlife and bird life in the country when you visit a nature reserve such as Gorongosa National Park in Beira. This park was once a thriving oasis that was favored by the rich and elite, but years of poaching and hunting had a huge impact on the wildlife populations. Conservation projects have seen the park slowly be restored to its former glory, and here you will be able to spot a host of game. The country is also home to a huge variety of birds, with colorful local species and many migratory species and water birds to be seen alongside the monkeys that favor the indigenous woodlands along the coast.

Culture and Cuisine

With a heady blend of Arabic culture, Portuguese influence and African essence, Mozambique has a fascinating blend of cultures that can be seen in its architecture, style, people and cuisine. Markets in Mozambique offer a range of treasures from spices to fabrics, curios and many other goods, while restaurants and food stalls offer delicious fresh seafood and cuisine inspired by Mozambique’s rich blend of culture.
