Chiveve

Chiveve lies on the low coast where the Pungwe and Buzi rivers enter the Mozambique Channel. The Pungwe descends from the eastern highlands, while the Buzi reaches the same broad estuary from the southwest. Tides and river sediment shape the flats at their mouths. Mangroves grow along the Chiveve watercourse, whose waters meet the Pungwe estuary near the coast.
