Enjoy the beaches 

Mozambique has many beautiful, pristine beaches along its 2.700Km coastline. Camping is therefore only permitted in demarcated and authorized areas so as not to spoil the beaches for everyone’s enjoyment. Please assist by keeping campsites free of rubbish.

• Fires are only allowed in areas arranged for that purpose.
• Pets are not allowed in camping areas.
• Vehicles are not allowed in areas where there are no existing roads, because of the risk of land mines.
• When recruiting local people, agree on the rates for the service beforehand, so as to minimize exploitation. Children often stay away from school to earn an extra income.
• Driving on beaches is not allowed as it kills the animal life. Use existing roads and paths only when accessing the beaches.
• Fires, littering, the use of fire works, and the processing of fish are prohibited on all the beaches in Mozambique.

• A “ fishing sport license “ is required for all the water sports, including fishing competitions, and can be obtained from the Maritime Administrator in each provincial capital city or from a yacht club
• Boats can only be launched from access roads. Noise should be minimized  and care must be shown for the safety of people on the beaches ( maximum speed 15Km/h).

• Please do not interfere with the activities of the local fisherman that depend on fishing for their livelihoods.
