Overview

Why Mozambique

Mozambique is the perfect end to a safari — barefoot island luxury, turquoise water and world-class diving on the Indian Ocean. The Bazaruto Archipelago and Tofo deliver whale sharks, manta rays and coral reefs, while inland Gorongosa tells one of Africa's great rewilding stories.

Dhow sailing, fresh seafood and powder-white sandbanks make it an idyllic, romantic finish.

The dry season (April–October) is ideal for the coast and diving, with calm, clear water. Avoid the cyclone risk and humidity of the wettest months (January–March).
