Mozambique Casinos
by Juan on December 13th, 2009
The general insufficiency in the numbers of, Mozambique’s casinos is in one sense somewhat puzzling, in one way or another.
In past times, the area was a location where lots of South Africans would check out to get away from the especially restricted regulations on gambling (and, it has to be said, mixing with other races) that they had at home. So, you would expect a concept of a thriving business to accommodate that tourist industry.
However, maybe it is not particularly a surprise. The area is certainly the most barren world wide, having gone through a horrible civil war (followed by catastrophic floods) from which it is still, very slowly, getting back on its feet. This tends to make a place much less of a vacation place, though there is now a favorable environment along several of the state’s breathtaking beaches.
It is in addition accurate that regionally at the very least, Mozambique’s casinos have had to compete with casinos in the recently liberalized South Africa, which is inclusive of the well-known Sun City founded by the Kerzner family establishment.
Here’s a list of Casinos in Mozambique:
Maputo: Polana Casino Hotel
There are 78 slot machines as well as video poker games, 5 tables of American roulette, four blackjack tables, as well as one poker table.
Namaacha: Sol Libombos Hotel Casino
There are 40 slot machines, American roulette, and two tables for poker and punto banco.
It is thought that over time the complete tourism business in Mozambique will build productively. While the local languages are, of course, African, there is in addition the balance of Portuguese from the old colonial power and the current and growing introduction of English, both from South Africa and as part of the world-wide phenomenon. The country is quite cheap (naturally, as it is very poor) and as above, has some of the most captivating beaches across the globe, fronting onto the Indian Ocean. Those are the combination of features that make tourism management drool, and as the country advances out of its arrived at slump, it’s likely that not only will tourism boost, but that the list of Mozambique’s casinos will grow longer also.
While the country is unlikely to ever reclaim its reputation as a place for partying South Africans, as there are now other choices closer to home for them to oblige in, the enhancement of a long distance tourism business is being planned. This would be to accommodate Europeans seeking winter sun, as an escape from the bleakness of the Northern Hemisphere winter. Additionally, obviously, the most elite prawns (shrimp) across the globe are just offshore, in the Mozambique Channel.
