White Pearls of Mozambique

Perhaps the perfect prelude, or epilogue, to a stay in KwaZulu-Natal’s andBeyond Phinda Private Game Reserve is this relaxing beach break across the border in neighbouring Mozambique. Perfectly placed for this particular task is the wonderful White Pearl Resorts, Ponta Mamoli. Nestled in a picturesque bay on Mozambique’s Lagoon Coast, this stunning resort is within driving distance of South Africa’s northwest Indian Ocean coast.

This stunning resort, which sits right on the shore, features six stylish Beach Pool Suites, all of which are ocean-facing and come with their own private beach, a heated plunge pool, air conditioning, a private deck and invigorating outdoor shower. Alternatively, the 15 Stilted Timber Suites have clean modern lines, spacious living areas and both outdoor and indoor showers.

There’s a range of dining options serving local and international dishes, as well as a delightful pool deck, an indulgent spa and activities ranging from horse riding and scuba diving to guided ocean safaris, which make the most of the region’s breathtaking coastline.
