Visit Mozambique
Mozambique is a great country that makes a big impression on visitors, not only because of its privileged geographical location but also due to the charm and hospitality of its people. The country is situated on the East Coast of Southern Africa, and its 2500km long coast bordering on the Indian Ocean offers the visitor spectacular scenery with beautiful, crystal- clear water, white sand beaches framed by endless dunes, dark blue or emerald green lagoons, a great diversity of flora and wildlife and a multifaceted culture that is mirrored in the way of life of its people, derived from the marriage of African, Arab, Indian and European heritages.
