Mozambique

Mozambique is stunning! We headed up the coast and stopped at a few towns along the way. The beaches are very beautiful with crisp white sand and deep blue ocean and lagoons. Rob went diving off Vilanculos which has a great reef and tremendous visibility. He saw a group of devil rays, an enormous potato bass and (maybe) a small shark in the distance. We took a boat out to one the five islands off the coast of Villanculos where Wendy chilled out and read her book and met a few locals that tried to make her eat a fruit that looked nasty so she politely declined. At night we ate the freshest seafood - giant prawns and grilled calamari. It is such a polar opposite experience than coming down the west coast! It is a great place although with ever increasing amounts of tourism will probably lose its allure in the coming years.
