Mozambique in July

July is such an exciting time as it marks the beginning of the dry winter season, making it perfect for wildlife viewing! The cool morning game drives offer a fantastic opportunity to explore Maputo National Park, where you can spot some amazing animals. While they’re not super plentiful, you might come across elephants, hippos, zebras, and wildebeests.

Keep your eyes peeled for giraffes and buffaloes too! They can be a bit tricky to find, but seeing them roam the park occasionally is always a delight.

If you’re looking to enjoy local cuisine, you have to try Xima! This delicious porridge made from maize or cornflower pairs perfectly with veggies, beans, or fish, making your dining experience truly special.
