Pomene Ridge is 650 Km North of Maputo and 170 Km South of Vilanculos. The turnoff from the South is about 8 km North of Massinga. The main road is generally in good condition both from Maputo and from Mutare. Pomene is about 50 kms off the main road. For travellers from the North there is a different route which is slightly shorter. It is possible to travel to Pomene Ridge in a 2 x 4 pickup, though anyone towing a trailer would need a 4 x 4. I have successfully negotiated the route towing a large ocean going Cat with twin 85hp outboard motors. Specific directions will be provided to you to negotiate the dirt road including GPS co-ordinates. Owing to the large number of branch roads, first time travellers should not arrive at night.Area Attractions
Fishing A line of reefs running from Pomene Point in a northerly direction to Zambia Reef marks the edge of the continental shelf, beyond which the ocean floor falls away very rapidly. These reefs are all within easy boating distance of Pomene Ridge. Birding Flamingo The broad range of habitats in the vicinity of the Ridge makes this an exciting (and hitherto unexplored) venue for birders. There are freshwater wetlands, inter tidal sandbars and mud flats, mangroves, dune forests and scrub, grasslands and river estuary. On pelagic trips spectacular concentrations of sea birds can be seen. Diving & Snorkeling Zambia South reef is a famous dive site. Bring your own equipment or visit the dive center at Pomene lodge across the estuary.Snorkelers, don’t miss the downed timber in the estuary where an impressive variety of reef dwellers can be seen. Exploring Take a boat ride or a fishing ski up the river into the mangroves or across the bay to the rocks at the point. Look out for the crabs – each habitat has its own species. Hike or cycle north along the beach or explore the back roads. Casa Ray www.casarei.co.za )hires out Fishing skis at R200 a week.
