To observe wildlife in national parks

With its multiple landscapes and numerous ecosystems, Mozambique is home to extraordinary wildlife. Although animals suffered during the civil conflicts, the country has made wildlife conservation and protection a major priority. Reintroduction efforts undertaken by authorities, associations, and foundations have allowed Africa's great animals to repopulate the territory. You can take advantage of your Mozambique trip to experience wildlife safaris within reserves and national parks.

Among the most breathtaking national parks and nature reserves, we recommend Gorongosa National Park. Located in the heart of the country at the edge of the Rift Valley, this park is populated by lions, elephants, zebras, wildebeest, antelopes, impalas, kudus, crocodiles, hippopotamuses, leopards, warthogs, primates... Not to mention countless bird species. You can enjoy 4x4 safaris, walking safaris, or boat excursions.

We also recommend the elephant reserve of Maputo, located on the country's southern coast and renowned as a sanctuary for 700 pachyderms. You can also safari in the Niassa reserve in the north, which remains relatively untouched and offers opportunities to see elephants, black rhinoceroses, antelopes, buffalo, and large predators.

For underwater diving

While Mozambique remains relatively unknown among travelers, it's equally undiscovered by divers. Yet Mozambique stands as one of Africa's finest diving destinations. Mozambique's waters are particularly renowned for their megafauna: whale sharks, humpback whales, manta rays, sharks, dolphins, dugongs, and manatees... But you'll also find magnificent coral reefs (hard and soft corals) teeming with reef fish, sea turtles, and nudibranchs...

To give you an idea of what awaits, here are the best diving sites to explore in Mozambique:

• The Quirimbas Archipelago: this archipelago contains Africa's largest marine protected area.

• The Bazaruto Archipelago: designated a marine national park, this archipelago offers tremendous diversity of corals and aquatic life. Nearly 75% of Indian Ocean species have been recorded here.

• Tofo: arguably Mozambique's most spectacular diving site. The spot is notably renowned for its challenging dives and abundant pelagic life. It's better suited to experienced divers.

• Zavora: this is THE diving site to discover if you're passionate about sharks. You can spot bullhead sharks, blacktip reef sharks, whitetip reef sharks, leopard sharks, sawfish, tiger sharks, and hammerhead sharks...
