Latest reviews on Nampula's beaches

Mossuril Beach
10 Yazan Nabil

The beach, restaurant, and resort are all lovely. The food is absolutely delicious and prepared perfectly. They have a spacious parking area and serve seafood in a delightful manner. If you happen to be visiting Chocas Mar, this place is a must-visit. While it may be a little far from the main accommodations, the drive is definitely worth it. Highly recommended.

This is a great spot that I might come back to. The only area that could use some improvement is the food, but everything else is good.
