COUNTRY PRESENTATION

Mozambique is an enticing international incentive destination offering many possibilities. The beaches and coral reefs of Mozambique qualify as among the most beautiful and pristine in Africa. The Mozambique coastline and offshore islands are renowned for an abundance of flora, birdlife and marine life and the conservation of these natural resources is of major importance for the country.

In the south, the beautiful island lodges in the Bazaruto Archipelago and top quality hotels in the vibrant capital of Maputo are attractive draw cards. Maputo is home to a major convention centre suitable for international meetings and its history, culture and world famous cuisine make it a worthwhile stop en route to the coast. The tropical coastal town of Vilanculos is the gateway to coastal marine reserves and a convenient departure point for the islands.

Vilanculos and the Bazaruto Archipelago offer idyllic, tropical resorts where the opportunity to relax on a sun-drenched beach can be combined with a surprising array of activities that will entice the senses. Whether diving with Dugongs in Vilanculos Bay, or landing a King Fish off Benguerra Island, your trip to this part of Mozambique is guaranteed to be a magical, unforgettable experience.

Maputo and the Bazaruto Archipelago are in close proximity to South Africa, allowing for easy international connections as well as the opportunity to mix a beach sojourn with a true African safari in the world famous Kruger National Park.

WHEN TO VISIT

There are two main seasons in Mozambique. The wet season (November to March) is also the hottest, especially at the coast. The dry winter season runs from April to October and is traditionally the best time to visit Mozambique.

Bird watching is most popular in November and December during the rains. Fishing and diving at the coast can be done year round as the warm waters attract plenty of marine species to the coastal reefs.

HOW TO GET THERE

Johannesburg, South Africa is the best gateway for all international flights to the region. There are daily scheduled flights from OR Tambo International Airport to Maputo International Airport and Vilanculos Airport, taking just over 2 hours.

Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport, just north of the Kruger National Park, also provides air links to this region, with a shorter flying time.
