Elephant Swimming in Mozambique Waters!

Monday, February 6th, 2012

Recently, a happy ellie (elephant) was spotted having a ball in the waves of Nuarro Bay, Nampula, Mozambique.

The question is, where did the elephant come from? The best guess is that he travelled from about 150km away seeing as Lurio Falls is home to ellies. That’s quite a far trek for this little guy to enjoy the washing, drinking and frolicking he’s so obviously loving. Regardless, he looks happy to be at Nuarro Bay and residents hope he stays.

A big thanks to Crissy, the camera ready dive master for taking these photos!

Go on a Mozambique adventure and enjoy the best safari in Africa, where tropical fish swim, where whale sharks glide and where elephants frolic!
