November is a reasonably good time to visit Mozambique before it gets wet and the landscape changes.

Before the rain starts pouring, a fantastic region to visit is Ponta Mamoli.

Explore the variety of marine life, including coral fish, vibrant coral reefs, playful dolphins, and graceful turtles. In the coastal region, you’ll likely spot traditional dhows sailing by, and you might even have the opportunity to ride in one if you choose to.

This time of year is an excellent time for diving enthusiasts to enjoy the coastal areas.

In addition to unique marine life, Mozambique is home to more than 750 species of birds, and the best time to see them is from November onward.

Expect to see birds such as the green-backed woodpecker, the African citril, the crab plover, the grey-crowned crane, the lemon-breasted canary, the palm-nut vulture, and the Livingstone’s turaco.

Remember to pack your binoculars for a perfect view!

Weather in November

The scenery is green and lush in November, but thicker vegetation makes it more difficult to see wildlife at this time of year.

However, all is not lost, as the turtle nesting season is underway, and you get to see hatchlings on the beach!
