Swaying palm trees, warm year-round weather, turquoise waters, and soft, powdery sand define Mozambique’s breathtaking beaches. Whether along the mainland coastline or on one of the country’s idyllic islands, Mozambique’s beaches offer the perfect escape from everyday life, letting you slow down and enjoy true island time. While the country is quickly becoming known as one of Africa’s premier beach destinations, much of its coastline remains untouched, giving visitors long stretches of private, deserted beaches.

There’s no shortage of activities to enjoy during your visit. From exploring vibrant coral reefs while diving or snorkeling, to big game fishing, whale watching, and traditional dhow cruises, Mozambique has something for every beach lover. You might even witness rare marine wildlife, like dugongs, sea turtles nesting, or swimming alongside gentle whale sharks.
