Which regions should you explore in Mozambique?

Southern Mozambique offers an excellent introduction to the country, with Maputo and Ponta do Ouro providing easy access to spectacular coastal scenery. Further north, Tofo, Vilanculos and the Bazaruto Archipelago reveal some of the most beautiful beaches and marine landscapes in Southern Africa.

Beyond the coastline, sandy tracks, rural villages and untouched countryside offer a different perspective on the country. The contrast between the Indian Ocean, inland landscapes and tropical vegetation makes every stage unique.

• Maputo and the southern coast
• The beaches of Tofo
• Vilanculos and the Bazaruto Archipelago
• Sandy coastal tracks
• Regions between the coast and the interior

Mozambique's greatest strength lies in this diversity. Every day combines spectacular scenery, authentic encounters and the relaxed atmosphere of the Indian Ocean coastline.

When is the best time to visit Mozambique?

The best period for a tour in Mozambique generally runs from May to October during the dry season. Pleasant temperatures, clear skies and good road conditions make it the ideal time to explore both the coastline and the country's inland regions.

This season offers excellent conditions for discovering beaches, lagoons, wildlife reserves and traditional villages, while the rainy season can make some remote tracks more challenging.
