Here's the sun going down to the west of Barra. The snap is taken from a quiet, chilled bar at the lighthouse, at the east end of the beach.

It may sound odd, but this type of sunset scene is quite rare in Mozambique for the simple reason that most of the beaches are east  or south-east facing.  The sun usually sets overland, behind your head.  

Barra, however, is north-facing and out on a peninsular, meaning you get dramatic sunrises and beautiful sunsets.

(Note to confused Europeans:  this is the southern hemisphere.)
