Travel to Mozambique

With plenty of coastline along the Indian Ocean and the island of Madagascar sometimes visible in the distance, the Republic of Mozambique is a nation that faces numerous challenges.  Despite it being rich in natural resources, it is one of the most undeveloped countries in the world and scores quite low on the annual poverty index charts.

Yet there is still beauty to be found amongst these challenges. The beaches of Mozambique are some of the most beautiful in the world. Watch the sun rise over the gentle waves, enjoy your favorite beverage, and enjoy a favorite book to read. You can also embrace the growing eco-tourism industry, which will take you into the interior of Mozambique to experience the cultural heritage of this nation.

You’ll also find plenty of space to explore without the hustle and bustle of heavy tourism with a visit to Mozambique. The entire nation has fewer than 10,000 hotel beds, including the coastal resorts, and occupancy rates are often below 40%. This means you have the opportunity to see incredible sights like Banhine National Park and have it just be you and your guide.

Traveling to Mozambique can be somewhat challenging compared to its neighboring countries, as a visa is required for entry. Yet if you’re willing to embrace this challenge, there is a great reward awaiting you on the other side. The beaches are pristine, the warmth is amazing, and the atmosphere is profound. If there’s one place you visit this year, make it Mozambique
