COUNTRY: Mozambique

Summary
Experience, enlighten and evolve as you come face to face with the resident dolphins of Southern Mozambique - on their terms. No feeding, no harassment, just you in the big blue, wondering who is actually watching who.
The coastal shallows of Ponta do Ouro is home to a large society of resident dolphins that have been socializing with The Dolphin Crew since the early 90’s after dolphin naturalist and conservationist Angie Gullan came face to face with creations most intelligent beings.
This moment in time forged a path that has lead to the establishment of Mozambiques permanent wild dolphin interaction and research facility that now houses the Dolphin Beachcamp. This unique style ego-village is situated right on the beach and it is here that one will drift off into peaceful slumber with dolphin experiences guiding you into dream-time with the gentle ocean rhythm beckoning you.
Magical and quaint there is direct access to the beach where early mornings are spent watching magnificent golden sunrises and searching for dolphins while sussing out the waves, wind and water conditions. The BeachCamp offers a tranquil venue that attracts ocean loving clientele, ranging from people seeking to swim with dolphins, scuba divers, surfers and families seeking a space that is safe and peaceful, whilst still being in the hum of Ponta do Ouro.
