The coral reefs in the Inhambane area are famous for sightings of Manta Rays and Whale Sharks.The area has been earmarked to join the list of Marine World Heritage Sites and we strongly recommend a day or half-day trip for an ocean experience, diving or snorkeling during your stay with us. The water temperature is above 23 degrees all year round and can reach temperatures of 28 degrees early in the year.
Travessia recommends a selection of dive centers and offers to assist with the booking. Guests need to enter into a direct agreement with the selected center. Transfers for the daytrip can be booked with Travessia, if required.

Kids as young as three years have been braving the warm water and shore break with our boogie boards of all sizes. With the help of their parents, the little ones can catch the “waves” in knee deep water at low tide, whilst bigger boards are available for older children and adults.

Do as the locals and join our team on their shopping trip to Morrumbene, Massinga or Maxixe.Those small town markets usually cater for locals more than for tourists and allow for relaxed browsing. You will find a variety of “capelas”, the colourful printed fabric the women of Mozambique like to wear, as well as beautifully woven baskets, traditional food preparation tools and of course, lots of fruit, veggies and spices.
For a broad selection of curio items we recommend a trip to the market of Inhambane.
Transfer fees may apply. Tours are for free if guests join the Travessia team on their shopping trip to Massinga or Maxixe.

Kayaking

The walk is for free. Any donations from guests to our “Village Fund” are welcome and will contribute to future projects to the benefit of the community, such as building and maintenance support for the local schools or infrastructure.

There is a definition of “romance” that describes it as a “quality or feeling of mystery, excitement and remoteness from everyday life”. Come to Travessia for your honeymoon and experience wild romance at its best!
