Ponta Do Ouro is the most accessible and vibrant of GoBundu’s three featured Mozambique destinations. Located just a 30-minute drive from the Kosi Bay border, it’s the only one you can reach with a normal car—no 4x4 or differential lock needed—making it perfect for a spontaneous beach escape.
The Perfect Mix of Convenience and Coastal Charm
Ponta Do Ouro is buzzing with life. From local markets and beach bars to restaurants, pubs, and coffee shops, everything is within easy walking distance. Whether you’re after a fresh mango or a cold cocktail, you’ll find it here. The main market is full of Mozambican flavour—offering locally grown tomatoes, lettuce, bananas, mangos, and homemade Mozambican chilli sauces that make great souvenirs.
This is also the only area with the full range of town conveniences. You’ll find a bank, fuel station, supermarket, pharmacy, beachwear stores, and a great selection of fishing and dive shops all close by.
Activities for Every Kind of Holidaymaker
If you’re after adventure, Ponta Do Ouro won’t disappoint. It’s packed with scuba diving operators, swimming with dolphins, deep-sea fishing charters, surf lessons, and ocean safaris. And for those looking to unwind, you can hire a beach gazebo for the day or enjoy a relaxing massage right on the sand.
Ponta also offers a fantastic long surf break—it’s one of the best spots in the area for surfing, attracting both beginners and experienced surfers. With consistent swell and space to spread out, it’s the ideal destination if you’re chasing waves.
One of Mozambique’s Best Beaches
The beach at Ponta Do Ouro is arguably the best of the three GoBundu locations. The bay is wide and inviting, and during low tide it transforms into a calm, waist-deep lagoon-like stretch—perfect for kids, families, and long, lazy swims. Just keep in mind that with its popularity comes energy: Ponta Do Ouro is the busiest and most social of our Mozambique destinations.
