Pristine, palm-fringed beaches and crystal clear seas, Mozambique is a great beach getaway for families with plenty of activities to keep every member of the family happy!

Mozambique is suitable for any age, but is a malarial country, so antimalarials will be required.

Accommodation in this wonderful country is in beach lodges with a variety of room options for those with children and activities are generally water based, with snorkelling, diving, kayaking, sailing and fishing all available. Inland excursions include horse riding.
