Last year my wife and I decided to go to Mozambique for the first time. We had heard quite a lot about it and were rewarded with a lovely holiday. What a lovely place at a reasonable price. We flew out from Lanseria airport to Mozambique on one of those prop planes, yes they do still exist outside a museum. We were on a package deal that cost about R 7500 per person for the week including flights, accommodation, breakfast and dinner for a week.
We spent the first 4 nights at Barra Lodge. The lodge is right on the beach and has basic accommodation, but is clean which is the main requirement for us. We went towards the end of April and I must say it was nice and hot, I wouldn't go there at a hotter time of the year! There are a number of activities that are co-ordinated from Barra Lodge, including Scuba Diving, Ocean Safaris and activities like quad biking. When on the Ocean Safari we had the opportunity to snorkel with Whale Sharks, which would have been a real experience had we both not been so sea sick!
We then moved to Flamingo Bay a resort also owned by Barra Resorts. Now if you want a romantic setting this is the place to be. The chalets are on stilts above the water that is crystal clear allowing you to see some amazing fish from your chalet as the tide goes in and out. If you lazy or if you have had too much wine, you can be transported to and from your chalet on a golf cart to the resturant.
