Mozambique
Mozambique is a Portuguese colony and home to over 1, 500 miles of undeveloped Indian Ocean beachfront. Some of the finest diving and deep sea marlin fishing in the world and a unique Afro-Iberian-Brazilian culture with one of the most relaxing tourism destination.
The capital of Mozambique is Maputo which is one of the safer capitals in Africa. The city sits both on the Indian Ocean and at the confluence of the three rivers. The primary language is Portuguese and many young Mozambicians speak English.
In Maputo, inside many of the older structures Mozambicians have built cafes and restaurants with great Mozambician food, one of the world’s original cuisines. Because Mozambique wasn’t influenced only by Portugal but also by Arab trades and migrants from Portugal’s Asian and Latin colonies, Mozambique’s cosmopolitan cuisine mixed Brazilian spices, local seafood and tropical fruits.
The ideal time to visit Mozambique is May through October, the cooler, drier season. January through April is hot and rainy, which also can be a fine time to visit, as long as you’re prepared for occasional wet spells. October through January is brutally hot and uncomfortable.
From New York, the fare to Maputo, on a code-share flight between American Airlines and South African Airways, with stops in London and Johannesburg, would cost roughly $1,835, based on a prices being quoted for a 21-day advance-purchase ticket in mid-May.
