subject: Explore The Island From Hotels In Maputo Mozambique [print this page] If you want to be assured of a great holiday that lives up to your expectations, ask a friend, colleague or reputable travel agent for ideas. Deciding on your destination is one thing; choosing where to stay is another.
Remember that your idea of luxury might not be the same as anothers. Likewise, you may think that roughing it is the equivalent of self-catering accommodation while someone else may see it as coping with the bare essentials, sans the first-world comforts in goods and technology that many travellers are used to.
Hotels in Maputo Mozambique take the edge off what some people might find challenging in this third-world country on the east coast of Africa. You get to experience island life from the security of a well-designed, comfortable haven like the Southern Sun Maputo.
Travellers wanting to get away from it all like the idea of visiting a tropical island, where hotels in Maputo Mozambique are well placed to help them unwind and relax. Situated on the picture-postcard palm-fringed beaches, with long expanses of white sand and warm water, guests can take it all in from the pool deck if they so wish. Its about the incredible view and the hiss of the waves as they break onto the shore.
But for the more active travellers, hotels in Maputo Mozambique will have to provide access to more than just the view. These guests will want to snorkel, scuba dive, windsurf, water ski, parasail or jetski. Thats not to mention the fishing opportunities deep sea and onshore.
Hotels in Maputo Mozambique like the Southern Sun Maputo are just 7km away from Maputo International Airport, which is a gateway to many other beautiful parts of the island. A short flight away is Tofu Beach where a research centre has been set up to focus on the conservation of what is known as megafauna: manta rays, sharks, turtles and the like. Its called the Foundation for the Protection of Marine Megafauna, spearheaded by lead scientist Dr Andrea Marshall. There you can swim with the manta rays, adopt one, or sponsor a monitoring tag, among other activities.
Hotels in Maputo Mozambique attract guests who appreciate the islands natural beauty and especially the marine life. The manta rays love Tofu Beach, where they can be seen throughout the year. Whale sharks also make that area home and the humpback whales like to visit from mid-June to mid-October.
