Mozambique Overview
Since 1990,
Mozambique has been developing as a tourist Mecca
once again. The most popular areas for holidaymakers
is the South Coast, particularly Maputo, formerly
known as Lourenco Marques, and the islands of
Inhaca, Benguerra and Bazaruto. Maputo is an attractive
port which still retains much of its Portuguese
charm. Its old town is a maze of narrow streets
lined with many buildings dating back to before
the turn of the Century. Visitors enjoy exploring
the town's many colourful markets, where one can
pick up exotic spices, nuts and nick-nacks. The
largest island in the Gulf of Maputo, Inhaca is
a tropical paradise with beautiful beaches, a
mangrove-lined coastline in the north, and brightly
coloured reefs off its West coast. Inhaca village
is a tiny settlement where the recently refurbished
Inhaca Hotel is situated. The Bazaruto Archipelago
of islands is a string of small sandy islands
lying about 20km from the mainland. These islands
have become an upmarket haven for visitors who
come here to enjoy its unspoilt beauty and see
its marine animals. Bazaruto is home to, among
other marine life, East Africa's last viable population
of the endangered dugong, a large and exclusively
marine herbivore.
