More than 10 years ago our journey to create Gala-Gala Eco Resort began on the out skirts of the tiny village of Ponta do Ouro in Southern Mozambique. Since then, it has evolved into the beautiful environment that our lodge is today. We kept striving to give back to the community as we grew by sourcing materials and men and women power locally.

We have implemented many eco principals and have given back to nature more than we have taken, in an effort to preserve the fauna & flora of our area. Birds and butterflies fill our trees and at nights you can hear the sounds of nature. Just a short 1.5km away, the village of Ponta do Ouro has also grown over the years, and now offers a variety of restaurants & cafes, a local market and many exciting outdoor and water sport activities, the most popular being scuba diving and swimming with dolphins.

Our marine reserve and local special elephant reserve have been declared the new Maputo national park, growing the efforts of conservation and our whole area has been declared an environmental protected area giving our future a great eco-friendly boost.
