Macarretane is a town in southern Mozambique.

Nearby is the Macarretane Dam which dams the Limpopo River. It was constructed to maintain levels of water flow of the Chokwé irrigation system. [ [http://www.ara-sul.co.mz/subindex.asp?lang=en&page=macarretane ARA-Sul Southern Regional Water Authority] , Maputo, Retrieved on June 15 2008]
