TOFO BEACH

Inhambane Province is located in the South of Mozambique, about 420 kms from capital city Mozambique (Maputo). The capital of Inhambane Province lies on a natural formed by a deep inlet at the mouth of the small Matumba River. Inhambane it’s the oldest extant settlement between Maputo and Beira. By the end of the 16 century it had been incorporated into Portuguese East Africa monopoly and had become a regular port of call for Portugues ivory-trade ships. Roughly 400 slaves were exported from Inhambane in 1762, a number that had quadruped by the end of that decade while ivory export fugures steadily sank. --- Leisure Activities : Weekends are meant to be for free tours that the group can organize by itself. You can decide to visit places of interest around the area of the work camp. It has now become a custom in all our Workcamps to have cultural nights. This affords each volunteer the opportunity to present her/his country and culture. Please bring with you your national flag and traditional dress if possible. Sports and artistic moments will be organized together by the participants and local community. In some cases the workcamp may run during special event (festival, fairs, workshops and others) occurring close to the area where the camp will be running.
