Coco Rico Resort is a resort property in the beach village of Ponta do Ouro, in far southern Mozambique near the South African border. Coco Rico Resort is set up for family stays and self-drive visitors, with facilities aimed at anglers and holidaymakers who arrive by road from South Africa.
Best for
Coco Rico Resort suits families and self-drive travellers who want a pool, secure parking and a fish-cleaning area for anglers.
It suits guests seeking a quiet, adults-only retreat less well, since the resort’s amenities are aimed at family groups.
Location
Coco Rico Resort is in Ponta do Ouro village, around 12 km from the Kosi Bay/Manguzi border post with South Africa. In a straight line it is about 945 m north of our Ponta do Ouro village reference point.
