The Mozambique Experience If
images of lazy afternoon siesta's and azure blue seas fill your thoughts,
chances are that you may be dreaming of Mozambique. For years the number
one destination for world travellers, Mozambique is fast reclaiming
its former status as prime seaside destination. The growth in superior
tourist facilities supports the natural attractions of Mozambique and
its people. You may have heard legends of giant Marlin being caught,
or plates of piri-piri prawns served for lunch. Well, that is Mozambique
and much more.
