Ponta Malongane


Dude. Can I just express that if you have not yet gone to Mozambique (and you have the means to) you are an idiot (no offense). The place is frikken awesome. Especially when only ~650 km from Jozi.

Over the weekend I headed up to Ponta Malongane for a quick diving trip. We stayed in the most outrageous accommodation - Magni House in Kangela:
  • Sleeps 12
  • 5 ensuite bedrooms
  • Fully staffed
  • Day beds
  • Satellite
  • Pool
  • Right on the beach
  • Need I say more
The best part about it is if you get a big group together, its fairly reasonable at R4k a night. And its right next to the dive camp (which offers a great range of dives). I even got to dive with Zambezis (yes... they are the most aggressive sharks around, but hey).

Other pros of going to Mozam revolve largely around the great food and cheap local booze. If you haven't tried Tipo Tinto yet, then you are in a for a treat.

Seriously, you should go. And remember to take your 4x4. You don't want to get stuck in the sand.
