There is nothing like a holiday at the sea. That is the sentiment of many local South African residing in the land locked provinces of South Africa, which accounts for the migration to the beautiful beaches along Kwazulu Natal Coastline during the national school holidays.

The only problem with this general migration is over-crowding. For this reason why not think about taking your next school holiday or vacation with the family at one of the many beautiful beach hotels along the coast of Mozambique or even better on an island beach resort off the coast of Mozambique – in the Bazurato Archipelago or Quirimbas Archipelago.

There are a number of luxury resorts which are right on the beach of Mozambique or on one of the many islands off the coastline.

  • Marlin Lodge has 19 en-suite chalets that stretch along the beach of Flamingo Bay on Benguerra Island.
