Pomene's lagoon and lighthouse headland

Mozambique

Pomene

Wild dunes, mangrove lagoons and an old lighthouse.

About Pomene

Pomene sits on a remote stretch of the Mozambican coast in Inhambane province. A sheltered estuary, mangrove channels and tall coastal dunes meet the Indian Ocean here, with a historic lighthouse on the rocky headland.

Things to do

  • Swim in the warm, sheltered estuary lagoon
  • Walk up to the lighthouse for sweeping views
  • Explore mangroves and empty golden beaches
  • Look out for dolphins and, in season, whales

Good to know

  • • Ashore by tender boat; landings depend on sea conditions
  • • An unspoilt, low-key stop — pack beach essentials
  • • A valid passport is required for Mozambique
