FAQ

Drive the N4 to the Lebombo border post, the EN4 to Maputo and then the EN1 north to Macia, where you turn off to Praia do Bilene. It is roughly 733km from Gauteng, and all of it is tarred, so no 4×4 is needed.

Bilene Club Lodge is about a two-hour drive north east of Maputo, on the EN1 through Marracuene, Manhica and Macia. Macia sits 157km from Maputo, and Praia do Bilene is signed off to the right just past the Usave and Shoprite.

Travel in daylight. Road markings and signage on the route to Praia do Bilene are poor, and the resort recommends guests plan the drive so they arrive before dark. There is a petrol station opposite the resort.

Call the lodge on +258 82 514 7571 or email bilene@dreamresorts.co.za. The WhatsApp line runs on weekdays during office hours. Dream Hotels & Resorts Central Reservations is reachable 24 hours on +27 (0)861 010 347.

South African passport holders do not require a visa for Mozambique. South African travel law requires an unabridged birth certificate for anyone under 18 leaving or entering South Africa, so carry it with the passports.

There is an ATM in Bilene and a government medical clinic in the village. Basic products are available at the local market, and there are restaurants and bars within close reach of Bilene Club Lodge.
