Sail and Safari in Mozimbique
Mozambique is the shining jewel of the Indian Ocean, with sandy white beaches and a
pearly necklace of spectacular islands. It is the perfect location for isle hopping and
experiencing true tropical bliss.
You can hope for no better view than when sailing breezily past the jaw-dropping mangrove
forests speckled with red-listed birds and hemmed with isolated beaches - ideal for
snorkelling but you can explore them too because what many travellers aren’t aware of is
that your trip to the Mozambiquan seas is also the perfect opportunity to enjoy an inland
safari! In this regard, Mozambique Yacht Charters is a fantastic company to start planning
your trip with.
Set sail!
Enjoy spotting lurid bird life, snorkelling, paddling in a two man kayak, swimming and taking
in the scenery on your yachting adventure, which can take you to places like:
Ulumbwa Island - Beneath the waters of this island, you can find miles of coral seascapes
in-between exploring little fishing villages, sampling some freshly caught kingklip and going
on guided tours through the lush mangrove forests. Ulumbwa presents its own singular
share of bright birds and untouched natural beauty.
Quilalea Island - Only recently re-opened, in 2011, this private vacation retreat is
refurbished and luxurious. It’s another spot where you can enjoy coral outcrops, winding
pathways and lush greenery. Here you can get a real castaway feel between the luxuries
offered by secluded beaches, beautiful villas and looming baobabs.
Welcome to the bush
Enjoy a memorable safari in Mozaimbique when on honeymoon, a trip with the family or
simply when in search of an unforgettable island holiday. We recommend a marine safari –
explore the natural wildlife of Mozimbique and visit many of the eco-friendly camps on
uninhabited islands. You can also visit:
The Quirimbas Archipelago - Ibo Island
This Muslim trading port houses one of the most alluring attractions in the entire archipelago.
Though many of the isles have relics of its silversmith expertise and slave trade, you can find
no better worksmanship than on Ibo. This ghost town is two centuries old, boasting forts
from a faded history along with ancient ruins and trade buildings. Safari on the island to
witness rare aquatic species such as Hawksbill and Green turtles, as they migrate on and
off-shore.
Guided nature and bird walks - Mozimbique’s mangrove forests are floral kigdoms, home
to over 700 rare and exotic bird species, including Sunbirds and Lilac-breasted Rollers.
Safari through the forests for a rare glimpse of these indigenous creatures, along with a
qualified guide.
Experience both the allure of sailing, as well as the adventure of exploring natural
Mozambiquan habitats when yachting and safariing in and around Mozambique this year.
