Mozambique

Why Mozambique

Mozambique remains one of Africa's best-kept secrets. While the Maldives and Seychelles draw the crowds, this 2,500km coastline offers something rarer: untouched beaches, world-class diving, and a genuine sense of discovery. The Bazaruto and Quirimbas archipelagos are home to some of the continent's most exclusive island resorts.

What makes Mozambique special is its combination of Portuguese colonial heritage, Swahili culture, and pristine marine environment. The underwater world here rivals anywhere on Earth, from whale sharks off Tofo to pristine coral gardens in the north. On land, the vibe is relaxed, the seafood is exceptional, and the pace of life invites you to slow down.

When to Visit

The dry season (April to November) is ideal, with calm seas and excellent visibility for diving. June to October is peak season. December to March brings rain and cyclone risk, but also warmer water and whale shark season in the south.
