Here for Mozambique Tourist Information Mozambique has always been a popular destination for South African fishing and off road enthusiasts. In recent years thanks in part to a new found political stability, the country has made a comeback as a destination for anybody seeking a taste of Africa.
Major improvements are underway with the countries roads and infrastructure.
For those seeking the solitude of empty white beaches, abundant fishing and quiet villages, it would be advisable to avoid waiting to long, as more and more people are discovering just what paradise could be like. Although the main urban areas of Maputo and Beira are served by good quality hotels, the real beauty of the country lies in its beaches, islands and rural areas. A variety of lodges and beach resorts offer everything from relatively rustic accommodation to fully outfitted luxury lodging with private airstrips, kilometers of deserted palm fringed beaches and crystal clear water. One of the more unusual destinations lies midway between the Mozambique mainland and the island of Madagascar. Bassas da India is a volcanic pinnacle that rises three kilometers from the sea floor to protrude a mere few centimeters above the surface of the ocean.
