Why Mozambique?

Well known for its stunning shoreline, Mozambique is home to some of the best beaches in Africa, as well as world-class diving and fishing. Rustic and romantic with no large resorts, your stay will be both exclusive and eco-sensitive.

Our Take

icon

Mozambique is not on the "traditional" African safari circuit, but that’s just one of the reasons we love it. Where else in the world can you combine a tropical beach getaway on the warm Indian Ocean with a spectacular wildlife safari, and all without the crowds?

White beaches fringed with thousands of mango trees, shocking blue seas filled with whale sharks and dugongs, and the stunning Gorongosa and Niassa National Reserves are just some of the highlights you can squeeze into your Mozambique holiday.
