Mozambique in February

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

February is another month in Mozambique’s low season, but it’s an exciting time for wildlife enthusiasts. While the rains continue, the landscapes are lush, and there’s a real sense of serenity as fewer tourists visit during this time. Ideal for nature lovers seeking a peaceful and unhurried safari experience.

Gorongosa National Park

The rainy season brings a rich burst of life in Gorongosa, especially in its wetlands, which attract a variety of bird species and smaller animals. While big game may be harder to find, the park offers a quieter, more intimate safari experience with lush scenery.

Bazaruto Archipelago

February is an excellent time to visit Bazaruto for those looking to experience the beauty of the underwater world. The marine park offers rich biodiversity, and the warm waters are perfect for diving and snorkelling.

Maputo Special Reserve

Although February sees more rain, the Maputo Special Reserve still offers stunning landscapes, especially for birdwatching. The reserve is less crowded, giving you a more exclusive safari experience, and wildlife is active as the rains bring plenty of water to the region.

Activities to Do in Mozambique During February

  • Birdwatching safaris
  • Snorkelling and diving in the Bazaruto Archipelago
  • Beach relaxation and coastal exploration
