Scuba Diving Holidays In Mozambique
If you've a yen to escape from the crowds, then Mozambique is for you. Explore almost untouched but stunning waters away from more 'touristy' dive locations.
Country Description
Nestling between South Africa and Tanzania, Mozambique
has been torn apart by a 16-year civil war. Only the
capital Maputo is considered safe for tourists, as the
rest of the country is still littered with mines. However
with a good guide you will find stunning countryside
and, best of all, unspoilt diving.
Diving Description
Diving is a huge growth area for Mozambique's tourism
industry, largely thanks to South African operators offering
specialist tours. The waters around Mozambique promise
totally unspoilt reefs with an abundance of coral and marine
life. Be warned however, launching a RIB can be difficult
as the area is prone to large swells thrown in by the Indian
Ocean.
Dive Sites
Maputo
The most developed area lies on the coastline near to Maputo.
The coast features a broken barrier reef that is reasonably
close to shore. These boast pristine coral formations
and are teaming with life, including virtually guaranteed
shark sitings (bull, ragged tooth sand tigers and silvertips
are most common).
Other info
You should only use a reputable tour company with an
intimate knowledge of the country, as Mozambique
is still a dangerous country for tourists
