Gorongosa National Park

September is a great time for a visit to Gorongosa National Park, as the park’s wildlife is concentrated around remaining water sources. The dry conditions make animals more visible, and the park’s incredible biodiversity offers opportunities to see a range of species.

Bazaruto Archipelago

September offers excellent diving conditions in the Bazaruto Archipelago, with clear waters and abundant marine life. The calm seas make it a fantastic time for snorkelling, while the beaches offer plenty of space for relaxation.

Maputo Special Reserve

September is an ideal month to explore the Maputo Special Reserve. The dry season ensures great game viewing, especially as the animals congregate around waterholes. The cooler temperatures make for comfortable game drives and outdoor activities.
