Maputo Province, Province with coastal reserves in southern Mozambique

Maputo Province extends across 22,693 square kilometers of land between South Africa, Eswatini, and the Indian Ocean, featuring numerous rivers and conservation areas.

The region gained prominence during Portuguese colonial times through the development of its strategic port and railway connections to South African gold mines.

The population includes a mix of religious practices, with Pentecostal, Zionist, and Catholic faiths representing the main religious affiliations among inhabitants.

Temperatures in the province fluctuate between 40 degrees Celsius during November to March and drop below 20 degrees Celsius in July and August.

The Corumana Dam near the South African border functions as a primary water reservoir, with expansions planned to increase capacity and flood control measures.
