Cape Delgado, Tanzania & Mozambique: The Rovuma River rises in the Matagoro Mts. in southeastern Tanzania and marks the border between Tanzania (north) and Mozambique (south). The Rovuma is navigable to about 100 km inland, to the Upinda cataract. The delta of the Rovuma has built outward onto the continental shelf to create the broad, arcuate Cape Delgado. Islands and shoals, with their surrounding shallow turquoise waters, form the delta fringe.
