If you have never been to Ponta, you would be well advised to keep to things in mind regarding Ponta accommodation. Firstly, Mozambique was involved in civil war for many years, which was only ended in 1992. During that time much of the Mozambique infrastructure got damaged or plundered, letting its mark all over the country, while on the other hand infrastructure like holiday resorts and accommodation clearly was not being visited or utilized, and thus fell into disrepair. Secondly the communication, even today, between South Africa and Ponta is not wonderful and very few internet connections exist. The best you could in the circumstances do is to look on the internet for ' Ponto do Ouro accommodation' and go the web sites of the South African agents for Ponta accommodation. Here you will find an amazing array of accommodation considering the recent history of Mozambique.
Ponta accommodation will be found in the categories of: Beach houses, Guest Houses, Hotels, Lodges, Holiday resorts, Self catering accommodation, Camping sites and Luxury tented accommodation.

Ponta accommodation may be booked and paid for through the South African agents who will also be able to provide any other information you may require.
Scuba Ponta do Ouro was always good due to the 14 off shore reefs, but in recent times its status has been enhanced by the sad event of war. Due to the civil war, there for at least two decades was no access to Scuba Ponta do Ouro, resulting in the 'natural' preservation of a pristine environment. This means that the reefs and sea, today is recognized as one of the prime scuba diving sites in the world, but also because these reefs offer diving opportunities of between 10 and some 45 meters deep - a rare combination. There are also two very active scuba diving schools. Not only do they provide scuba training, but are very active in the preservation efforts of the reefs. Scuba Ponta do Ouro is a good reason to visit Ponta, but there are also other compelling reasons.
