Mozambique is located in Southern Africa on the coast between South Africa and Tanzania. It also shares a border with the landlocked countries Malawi, Zimbabwe, Swaziland and Zambia.
For years and years internal struggle & civil war prevented Mozambique to become a serious travel destination. The war is over now, and although travel is still quite adventurous in these parts, Mozambique is back on the map.
The capital Maputo is located in the very south of the country close to the border with South Africa. If you are going to South Africa and are curious to see what's accross the border a weekend trip to Maputo gives you some idea.
Other major towns are Beira and Nampula and the ports of Quelimane and Nacala.
Mozambique has some of the best beaches on the East African coast, offering azure waters, coral reefs and subtropical islands, while her people are known for their openness and friendliness. Mozambique's highlights include the Bazaruto archipelago in the south and Pemba in the north of the country.
