Mozambique

Island escapes, coastal reserves and Maputo city life

Mozambique is the region's beach finish and a multi-layered destination in its own right. The complexity sits in transfers — flights, boats and helicopters that must line up with international departures out of Johannesburg — while city, coast and island experiences each need their own handling rhythm.

Gateways
Maputo (MPM) · Vilanculos (VNX) · Pemba (POL) · Inhambane (INH)

April – November, outside the cyclone season
