Safari from Beira
Beira is the central coastal gateway for Gorongosa National Park and the wider Sofala landscape.
It grounds Gorongosa in real arrival geography instead of treating the park as an isolated restoration story.
Gorongosa normally closes during the core rainy season, and road or air arrangements should be confirmed for the actual dates.
Official guidance describes Gorongosa as roughly three hours by road from Beira, with transfers and air access arranged separately.
