This outfitter offers you real hunting adventures in the Mozambique wilderness of Africa.  Coutada 10 – one of the few formally proclaimed hunting areas in Mozambique. The huge area covers a wonderful range of varying habitat with the Zambezi river swamps, grassland and dense forest. As a result, a wide range of species can be offered, ranging from the small and fast forest duikers to the big game such as leopard, lion, buffalo and elephant.

This outfitter holds the concession over Coutada 10, which covers an area of 1,200 square miles (200 000 hectares) of unfenced, wild hunting grounds. The area was formally proclaimed some 40 years ago during the time of Portuguese rule. Before the war, Safari Landia operated the area with such greats as Wally Johnson, Harry Manners and Robert Ruark visiting regularly.

The last company to hunt the area before the war – Safric – described the area as the best for a general bag with Buffalo, Sable, Liechtenstein Hartebeest, Eland, Nyala, Reedbuck, Bushbuck, Lion, Leopard, Bush pig, Warthog as well as all of the forest duikers – Blue duiker, red duiker, Suni and Oribi. The Zambezi river is the largest river in the area with many Hippo and Crocodile.

During the long civil war, the area was not hunted.

The 494,000 acres of wilderness is bordered by about 30 miles of Indian ocean coastline on the south-eastern side. Coutada 10 is situated south-west of the Marromeu Buffalo Reserve. Depending on the time of year, up to 30% of the area is wetland with enormous swampy plains. On these plains one can on occasion see herds of several hundred buffalo and it is also here that most of the buffalo hunting is done.

Clients access the swamps with an amphibious vehicle and it will often be necessary to sleep in a small satellite "Fly Camp" on one of the wooded islands. There are large bays and rivers unequalled. One will often encounter Elephant and the area is also famous for its large forest leopard.

This area is blessed with herds of animals as it was described in the old days. The region is original, unspoiled and truly unique, offering a large selection of truly free ranging, wild game. It is one of the few places where you can hunt in unfenced, remote wilderness.
