Important Information

No estuário de Inhambane temos várias ilhas que podem ser visitadas dependendo das marés. Algumas dessas ilhas ficam completamente submersas na maré alta (Pansy Island), enquanto outra, especificamente a Ilha dos Porcos, têm habitantes permanentes. A Ilha dos Porcos tem uma elevação máxima a cima do nivel do mar de 11 metros. A maior parte da ilha está, no entanto, apenas 1 m acima do nível do mar. Tem uma população de cerca de 800 pessoas que dependem de energia solar e de bateria. Eles são autossuficientes com uma escola, igreja, clínica e alguns restaurantes Barraca. A maioria dos moradores são pescadores, pescando nos dhows ou nos kraals de peixes na área. E as mulheres coletam mexilhões e ostras locais nas águas rasas quando a maré está baixa. É uma experiência realmente memorável. A excursão está sujeita a condições climatéricas. Em caso de mau tempo, pode haver cancelamento dada opção para outro dia, a qual o tempo estiver bom. Porfavor, nao esqueça de levar consigo sua GoPro.
