My Story

So we were crossing the border into the great unknown, destination Mozambique!

We were set for Guinjata Bay – our first honeymoon stop, and then on to Vilanculos Beach Lodge, a luxury 5 star resort.

Our journey was accompanied by heavy tropical rain, which due to lack of drainage soon turned into a deep river. Luckily we were in the 4x4, but it still felt like something out of ‘Jumanji’!

The roads are heavily pot-holed with very little to no markings.

Frank was laughing, clearly enjoying the adventure, but my mind was on other things, like the fact that in 10 hours of driving we were unable to have a toilet break. Mozambique has a lack of running water in most of the non-tourist areas.

I remembered the words of a friend as we left. ‘Whatever you’re expecting, tone it down a notch’, she’d said. Mental note to tone her down a notch for being so damn understated about it.

This was a far cry from Hotels and white fluffy towels, yet even so, Mozambique was turning into an African adventure certain to make any honeymoon unforgettable.

Eventually the rain subsided and what I could see of the locals charmed me instantly. African’s making objects out of wood in their villages, Goats bleating through our windows as we trundled along the beach sand roads. Dark African children with bright white smiles, waving excitedly at new faces entering their terrain.

Thankfully my concern about my choice of Island honeymoon destination turned to relief as we entered the tourist spots. Only one road away from what seemed like deepest Soweto, but this was already more like it!

The Kruger National Park is now being opened up to include Mozambique. Already the fences have been removed in certain sections and 2 border crossings are in operation between the Kruger National Park and Mozambique ... one at Pafuri in the North and the other opposite the Phalaborwa gate on the eastern boundary of course.

Introduction to Mozambique

Mozambique lies on the East coast of southern Africa and on the western shores of the warm Indian Ocean. The capital of Mozambique is Maputo which lies in the south. A number of popular islands famed for game fishing such as Inhaca island which is just a short flight from Maputo. Further to the north are Tofo and Barra islands which are excellent locations for diving holidays. The Bazaruto and Benguerra islands lie off the coast from Vilanculos. Going towards the far north is the Quirimbas Archipelago with islands such as Quilalea, Ibo, Matemo and Vamizi not far off the mainland from Pemba.
Mozambique is a the place to enjoy a honeymoon, diving holiday, spectacular game fishing holidays, or a simple family holiday. This si the way to escape from the today's hustle and bustle world. Attractions also include snorkelling and a dhow cruise at sunset. It's possible to swim with Dolphins, and to get close up views of Manta Rays. Mozambique can offer you all this and much more.
By the way it's now possible to drive to Mozambique via the Kruger Naional Park at the Gyriondo gate.
Most travel agents can offer Mozambique travel services including accommodation in Mozambique, flights, car hire, diving or a complete Mozambique holiday.
