Whale Watching & Turtle Nesting
Ponta Mamoli offers unforgettable wildlife encounters throughout the year.
Between July and October, humpback whales migrate along the coastline and can often be seen breaching offshore from many beachfront homes.
From November to February, Loggerhead and Leatherback turtles return to these protected beaches to nest, with hatchlings emerging during the summer months.
To help protect these incredible animals, visitors are kindly asked not to shine lights onto the beach after dark.

Enjoy Portuguese-style flame-grilled chicken, freshly caught fish, seafood platters, prawns and traditional Mozambican dishes while overlooking the Indian Ocean before returning to the peace and privacy of your holiday home.

Just a short drive from Ponta Mamoli lies Maputo National Park, one of Mozambique’s most spectacular conservation areas.
Spend the day exploring beautiful lakes, coastal forests and open grasslands while spotting elephants, antelope, birdlife and other wildlife before returning to the beach for sunset.
