1. Visit the Elephant Reserve
Just a 45-minute drive from GoBundu's holiday homes, the Elephant Reserve is an ideal day trip for families. This wildlife haven offers sightings of majestic elephants, buffalo, various antelope species, giraffes, and more. It's a thrilling adventure where children and adults alike can learn about and appreciate these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. Don’t forget to pack a picnic basket and enjoy lunch by one of the serene lakes, making for a perfect family outing.
2. Swim with Dolphins
Swimming with dolphins in Mozambique is a unique experience that cannot be found in neighboring South Africa, making it a must-do activity during your stay. GoBundu partners with a highly experienced guide who knows these friendly dolphins by name, ensuring a safe and magical encounter for both kids and adults. This activity promises memories that your family will cherish forever.
3. Snorkeling in Ponta Mamoli
If you choose one of GoBundu's beach houses in the Ponta Mamoli area, make sure to bring your snorkeling gear. The Ponta Mamoli bay offers an extraordinary snorkeling spot, especially during low tide. Dive into the clear waters and explore the vibrant underwater world teeming with colorful fish and stunning coral formations. It’s an adventure that promises to delight the entire family.
4. Dining at Paulos Restaurant
Before reaching Parque de Malongane, you’ll find the quaint and charming Paulos Restaurant. This private dining experience is a highlight of any trip to Mozambique. Watch as Paulos prepares fresh prawns, crayfish, fish, and Portuguese-style chicken on an open fire. While you wait, relax at his exclusive bar and sip on a local favorite, R&R (rum and raspberry) or a 2M beer. Book your meal in advance to ensure Paulos has enough seafood to prepare your feast.
5. Diving Adventures
Parque de Malongane hosts a dive center perfect for both novice and experienced divers. Pre-book your dives and explore the rich underwater landscapes of Ponta do Ouro, Ponta Malongane, and Ponta Mamoli.
