The Lúrio is a river of northeastern Mozambique. It flows to the south of the Ruvuma River and empties into the sea just south of Pemba Bay.[1] The river is characterised by seasonal flows and lined by swamps.[2] There is a notable waterfall located along the river. The Mozambican government has plans to build a 120-megawatt hydroelectric plant on the river to supply electricity to the surrounding provinces of Nampula and Cabo Delgado.[3]
