While the Europeans were still struggling back in the Dark Ages, the light of the
ancient world had already fallen on Mozambique. From the 9th century AD, Mozambique’s
coast was part of a chain of civilised merchant kingdoms, visited by ships from
as far afield as , Arabia and Persia. They came sailing in on the monsoon winds
to buy slaves, ivory, gold and spices. Muslim merchants intermarried with African
families, and set up trading posts along the coast.
The ultimate tropical paradise, with incomparably turquoise waters and shoals of
colourful fish. Mozambique offers the most wonder surroundings, allowing you to
