Water at Cabo

The tap water is fine for bathing and brushing teeth, we would not recommend drinking the tap water, the lodge has bottled water available for drinking.

Mozambique is a malaria risk country, but we recommend to speak to your healthcare professional.

How to get to the Maputo Marina

If guests are flying into Maputo, they can grab a cab and be transferred to the Maputo Marina where the scheduled boat transfer will depart from.

There are daily flights arriving from Johannesburg to Maputo on Airlink.

Weather

The whole country broadly follows a Southern Africa weather pattern, with the rains falling largely between December and March.
By around April or May the rains subside, the sun comes out and the humidity drops – better weather spreads gradually from the south to the north.
June to October is the dry season, with often perfect tropical weather: clear skies, plenty of sun and almost no rain. This is the best time for most people to visit Mozambique. Although still tropical, June, July and August are Mozambique’s coolest months; you’ll need a light duvet at night, even though the temperature reaches over 30°C by day. During September and October it remains dry as daytime temperatures climb, though it cools down a lot at night.
November is a less predictable month of transition. Sometimes the rains start, although many days remain sunny and hot.
