Man, theres just something about Moz... You should go a little further north past Xai-Xai, turn right into Vilanculos. Turn left onto the dirt road right after Hotel Seta. Follow the dirt road for 400 meters, then when you get to the little sign that says no cars and bikes on the beach, take that turnoff and go down onto the beach. Left on the beach and continue driving at low tide for another 34km's. There you will find, at the end of the land, a hotel called Rio Azul. The co-owner of this place is also the host to Inside Angling. Trust me, go there!
