Mozambique

Mozambique... one of Africa’s up-and-coming hot-spots, with stunning beaches, excellent diving and magical offshore islands.

Mozambique is a vast country and is dominated by its Indian Ocean Coast. It has been likened to the Caribbean of 30 years ago undeveloped, simple and friendly with fabulous coral. But at the same time it is uniquely African, with a heady mix of Arabic and Portugese influences. It's a colorful, relaxing and romantic destination.
