This city is well worth visiting if you are looking to visit a coastal city. Take a stroll along the coconut palm promenade. Marvel at the stark contrast between the modern & older Portuguese influenced architecture. Experience the bright lights of Maputo at night. Polana, Maputo, Mozambique This is the perfectly located condo for a stopover or even a longer visit in Maputo. For only 680ZAR/2300MZN/36USD per night. This condo can be booked directly on Airbnb here: https://www.airbnb.co.za/rooms/271248... Walking distance to Maputo's main attractions, Maputo Bay & hangout spots! We are so happy with this accomodation for our brief stopover in Maputo as we drive further north to explore Mozambique. Bilene, Mozambique We’re in Bilene for the next leg of our Mozambique travel series! Bilene lies 200km north of Maputo in the Gaza Province. It’s famous for a few things and during this leg we’ll be experiencing them all - the expansive lagoon, dunes, delectable prego & sunsets! First we make a mandatory roadside Pao purchase before turning off towards Bilene. We’re staying at Boa Vista Resort! It’s situated right on Lagoa Uembje (Lagoon). This 1 bedroom service chalet is only 1200MZN/R350/19USD per night for 2 adults. We found Boa Vista Resort on Agoda (prices may vary) https://www.agoda.com/en-gb/boa-vista... It’s self-catering & has an en-suite, patio, double bed, barbecue facilities and well located. Perfectly appointed along Lagoa Uembje we have a front row seat for Bilene’s famous sunset! Known for its sunsets, we specifically chose Bilene to be able to experience some of the best sunsets you will ever experience. Bilene is known for its unmissable dunes! Naturally separating Lagoa Uembje (Lagoon) & Praia do Bilene (beach), are dunes as high as mountains! Driving these dunes is a must when in Bilene! There are also many 4x4 tours which can be arranged. The setting is beyond anything you could imagine. Dunes as far as the eye can see. A steep & dramatic entry facing the Indian Ocean. Coastal forest & vegetation atop these majestic dunes. Beauty & exhilaration in one spectacular natural setting! We have observed that the heart of any coastal town is where the entrepreneurial spirit resides! These are the main streets of Bilene… Colourful fabrics & carved wooden curios a fill the streets. There’s no shortage of fresh produce & freshly baked pao (bread). We walked along the back streets of Bilene Town to find a locally prepared beef stew. The entrepreneurs are welcoming, warm & wonderful! All you need for a comfortable stay in Bilene can be found in the town (ATMs, fuel, food & other essentials). Things to do here: 1. Take a drive along the shores of the lagoon. 2. Marvel at the crystal clear fresh blue water. 3. Relax at one of the many beach bars. 4. Visit Flip Flop Bar for their world famous steak pregos. World famous sunsets here in Bilene. We found our very own hidden sunset viewing point. A solitary sand bar on the shores of Lagoa Uembje. What a way to conclude this leg of our Mozambique trip.
