On safari, diving or beach holiday
Mozambique is a land of unexpected beauty. Just think: a 2,500 kilometer stretch of coastline dotted with coconut palms and pearly white beaches and the always warm Indian Ocean make Mozambique a paradise for beachgoers and water sports enthusiasts. The coral islands of the Bazaruto Archipelago – with impressive sand dunes, freshwater lakes full of crocodiles and savannas with 164 species of birds – and those of the Quirimbas are the dream of every diver, angler and nature lover. A top attraction are the reefs of the Sint Lazarus Bank. It is located in the north of Mozambique Lugenda Game Reserve , one of the largest in Africa and also one of the largest elephant populations. Gorongosa National Park offers beautiful, varied landscapes. Culture lovers will love the Ilha do Mozambique, one of the oldest European settlements in southern Africa and protected as a world heritage site. The capital maputo is known for its fish market, Mediterranean cuisine – king prawns are a specialty – and other remnants of the Portuguese colonial past. A country full of surprises!
