Since 1994, in the aftermath of civil war, the small town of Ponta do Ouro is finding increasing popularity as a tourist destination. There are a few hotels and restaurants, a bank and a campground. Due to its proximity to nearby Maputo (Mozambique) and Pretoria (South Africa), Ponta do Ouro is easily accessible.
