Zumbo

Eastern Africa

Zumbo is the westernmost town in Mozambique, on the Zambezi River. It lies on the northeast bank where the Luangwa River joins the Zambezi, so it is a border town facing Zambia across the Luangwa, with Zimbabwe diagonally across the Zambezi. In 2005 Zumbo had a population of 33,000. Wikipedia gives coordinates for Zumbo that fall at about 15.62 degrees south and 30.45 degrees east. The SRTM 90 metre elevation model reads about 348 metres above sea level at that point. Like the rest of Mozambique, Zumbo keeps Central Africa Time, which is two hours ahead of UTC all year.
