MOZAMBIQUE VACATIONS
Mozambique is a wonderful,
relatively undiscovered destination, featuring 2500km / 1 553 miles of pristine
beachfront on the mainland, and several small island paradises off the coast.
These include the
Bazaruto Archipelago made up of five islands, some of which
are protected national parks. Snorkelling, scuba diving and fishing in
Mozambique is excellent and the towns of
Pemba and
Maputo offer fascinating attractions for the visitor.
BAZARUTO ARCHIPELAGO,
MOZAMBIQUe
Along the Mozambican channel,
opposite Vilanculus on the mainland, are five exquisite islands – Bazaruto,
Benguerra, Magaruque, Bangue and Paradise – forming the Bazaruto Archipelago.
The entire Archipelago is part of a conservation project with the objective of
maintaining the ecological and social integrity of the Bazaruto National Park by
wise sustainable use of the resources.
The largest of the islands,
Bazaruto Island, is approximately 35km/22miles long and 7km/4 miles at its
widest point. A coral-reefed island, it features an astounding array of marine
life, and is a premier surf-fishing destination. Bazaruto has an abundance of
bird and animal life. Walking trails lead visitors to interesting areas such as
mangrove communities, freshwater lakes and turtle nests, and a walk up to the
lighthouse is a must. Diving and snorkelling off Bazaruto reveals an underwater
wonderland.
Benguerra Island is heaven for those wanting to relax in this tranquil island
paradise, with no major land predators to disturb the cycle of nature. The
slow-moving dugongs are amongst the most interesting of the marine mammals,
normally encountered in family groups of about five. The Bazaruto archipelago is
one of the only remaining havens in the world for the gentle dugongs who are
classified by the IUCN Red Data List as Vulnerable. Five species of dolphin
found in the area can be seen frolicking in the ocean, and in the summer months
humpback whales cruise past in the deeper water.
The landscape is made up of beaches and freshwater lakes – a highlight being the
flocks of flamingoes on the sandbanks. Anglers can experience the thrill of
deep-sea fishing, on a tag-and-release basis, for game fish, in fully equipped
boats with an experienced skipper. Other magnificent attractions in the region
include
Pemba,
Maputo,
Vilankulo,
Quirimbas and
Inhaca.
