Chongoene Resort Mozambique Chongoene Beach Resort is situated 3 kilometers north of Xai-Xai Praia in Mozambique. Situated on the beach the resort is set on one of the most picturesque areas in Mozambique, with spectacular views of pristine beaches and the crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean.

This popular destination has the world in it's oyster. Not only does it have the cleanest sand along warm tropical waters and hot weather all year round, it also offers various outdoor and water activities.

The massive reef running parallel to the beach provides natural protection against the strong waves at high tide and forms several small pools at low tide. Snorkeling and diving are much enjoyed during low tide.

Deep-sea fishing is excellent at Xai Xai and shore fishing is good at certain times of the year, especially from May to July, which is Kingfish time. Fly-fishing can also be enjoyed from the reef that protrudes from the sea, giving the fisherman a great chance to fly-fish in deeper water.

The open, sun-drenched beaches offer endless hours of strolling pleasure, kite flying, snorkeling, swimming, diving, and relaxing. Affordable meals can be enjoyed at the Restaurant, which also has a TV with DSTV.

Although Xai-Xai is a malaria area, the subtle breeze that blows most of the time keeps very few mosquitoes around.
There are a number of fresh water lakes within 30 minutes drive where kayaking; paddle skiing and windsurfing can be enjoyed
.
Wenela Tidal Pool, two kilometers South is a fascinating natural treasure having a natural tunnel and blow hole linking the pool to the sea.
