Other Activities

In addition to diving and fishing, Mozambique’s long Indian Ocean coastline makes it an ideal place for a wide range of water sports while its rugged unspoilt interior will appeal to activity enthusiasts and lovers of the great outdoors in general.

Hiking & Climbing

 

Mozambique’s rugged terrain combined with its natural beauty, makes it a good place for hikers. Experienced climbers can tackle the challenges of the demanding rock faces of Ugando range, to the north of the country, but there are few facilities so mountaineers need to plan expeditions carefully.

Horse Riding

 

 

There are numerous opportunities for equestrian activities, especially on the major islands where there are special horse trails.

Parasailing

 

This exhilarating experience is a must for all thrill-seekers. Launched and recovered from a small powerboat, it turns you into a human kite suspended hundreds of feet above the water. The view is unparalled.

 

Quad Biking

 

Quads are fun and very easy to ride, even a complete novice will be ready to roar within minutes.

 

The trails twist and through the sand and bush, offering climbs, descents, technical sections and flat-out straights. There are river crossings for the adventurous and alternative routes for the less daring

 

Sandboarding

 

 

Unlike surfing and snow boarding, sand boarding is easy to learn and accessible to beginners so adrenaline is just a slide away

Sea Kayaking

 

Paddle next to ancient dhows and dugout canoes as you explore Mozambique Island, Lake Niassa or the Bazaruto or Quirimbas Archipelagos in a one or two person kayak

Watersports

 

Canoeing, sailing, surfing, water-skiing, windsurfing and yachting take place along the coast; on Lake Niassa; and on several other lakes in the interior. Ponta do Ouro and beaches close to town of Inhambaneare especially good for surfing.
