Mozambique
Mozambique - although still relatively undevloped due to the long civil war which beset the country until the 1990's - is again becoming a major African travel destination.
The war left its scars on the human psyche and decimated vegetation in some areas, but perversely helped preserve other parts of the country in a pristine natural state, untouched by modern development and construction.
Most visitors are drawn to Mozambique's endless stretches of sub tropical beaches, where the fishing and diving are superb. The country has yet to develop a major national park which can easily be accessed by the traveler, although a massive tract of land was recently incorporated into the world's largest trans-frontier reserve, spanning South Africa's famous Kruger National Park and Zimbabwe's Gona-Re-Zhou. This Peace Park now has no artificial fences or barriers, allowing animals to traverse into Mozambique and the vegetation to recuperate.
In may still be some time before the area is truly accessible to travelers. When it is, we will place information on Mozambique's game reserves on these pages.
