Mozambique is open to leisure tourism, and visitor numbers have been rising, but travel remains higher risk than a typical beach or safari destination. The main issues right now are insurgent violence in the north, occasional unrest/crime, and lingering disruption from 2026 flooding in some areas. Travel is most straightforward in major cities and established tourist zones; northern provinces and some remote areas remain hazardous.
