Our Mozambique beach holidays take you to warm Indian Ocean waters and long stretches of soft sand along one of Africa’s most idyllic coastlines. The country’s offshore islands shelter rich marine habitats, with vibrant reefs and shallow lagoons that create some of the most rewarding conditions for time in the water.
The Bazaruto and Quirimbas archipelagos are traditional focal points for time on Mozambique’s coast. Bazaruto’s established island lodges place you close to clear shallows ideal for guided snorkelling and boat excursions, whereas the Quirimbas brings quieter shores, boutique properties and access to marine areas supported by ongoing conservation work. South of Maputo, newer coastal lodges offer a different option, with easier links from South Africa and a relaxed, barefoot style suited to honeymoons and special celebrations.
Each beach holiday to Mozambique is tailor-made by our Travel Specialists, drawing on years spent exploring these islands, staying in locally run lodges and understanding how tides, visibility and seasons affect each region. Their first-hand insight helps you choose the region that best matches the pace and focus you want from your time away.
