Mozambique beckons with its coastline and swaying palms, its traditions, its cultures, its vibe and – most of all – its opportunities for adventure. This enigmatic southeast African country is well off most travellers' maps, but it has much to offer those who venture here: long, dune-fringed beaches, turquoise waters abounding in shoals of colourful fish, well-preserved corals, remote archipelagos in the north, pounding surf in the south and graceful dhows with billowing sails. Add to this colonial-style architecture, pulsating nightlife, an endlessly fascinating cultural mix and vast tracks of bush populated with elephants, lions and birds galore. Discovering these attractions is not always easy, but it is unfailingly rewarding. Bring along some patience and a sense of adventure, and jump in for the journey of a lifetime.
Friendly people, magnificent beaches, a balmy tropical climate, fabulous seafood, crumbling yet elegant colonial buildings combine to make Southern Mozambique an utterly beguiling travel destination. In Maputo - one of Africa’s prettiest and most charming capitals - visitors can sample the lively local nightlife, peruse the bustling Municipal Market, or feast on fresh king prawns along the seaside promenades. Just a couple of hours out of the city, the port town of Inhambane has some intriguing old Portuguese architecture, as well as a wide lagoon where visitors can take a dhow over to the neighbouring village of Maxixe. The seaside destinations of Tofo, Barra, and Pandane each have their own charms - visit Tofo for surfing and whale shark diving, Barra for its sublime beach and adventure activities, and remote Pandane for incredible snorkelling.
