Mozambique Accommodation
Scuba Mozambique's website will guide you to the top dive destinations in Mozambique offering Mozambique Accommodation or complete dive packages.
Mozambique offers pristine beaches, warm waters and unspoilt reefs. Scuba diving here is truly world class. Mozambique has steadily established itself as one of the top dive destinations in the world.
Divers come to Mozambique to swim with the giant Whale sharks that frequent the waters of this beautiful coastline. The small town of Praia do Tofo (pronounced Torfu) is the home the of largest concentration of Whale sharks in Africa.
To get to Tofo you have to travel through the city of Inhambane. Many tourists are under the impression that they can dive from Inhambane itself but in actual fact there is only a harbour in the town and the diving resorts lie about an hour’s drive from Inhambane. Whale sharks snorkel trip run on a daily basis from most dive centres in Tofo. Whale sharks are friendly and curious creatures, sometimes even coming up to the boat and divers. Another reason for divers to put Mozambique on their must-dive list would be the friendly but huge Manta rays.
Two new species of Manta rays has recently been discovered on Manta Reef in Tofo. The species have not even been named yet as they were only discovered mid 2009. Scuba divers certainly have a lot to look forward to.
Apart from these two gentle ocean giants, Mozambique has amazing reefs as well as some great shark reefs more to the South. Diving in this country offers great variety. Mozambique is also known for its dolphin swimming and whale watching. Avid shark divers should definitely visit Mozambique’s top two shark reefs, Pinnacles and Pandaine Express. The new dive destination of Zavora, Mozambique, now also welcomes divers to come and enjoy their sharks, Manta rays, whales and wrecks. Scuba Mozambique will plan, advise and book your dive holiday and Mozambique Accommodation to your specific requirements.
The guys at Scuba Mozambique are not just dive travel specialists. They’re divers.

Great White Shark, Mako Shark, Blue Shark, 7 Gill Cow Shark and more all in one week.
Visit Cape Town, South Africa, to watch the Great Whites leap out of the water during a natural predation hunt or scuba with the prehistoric Seven Gill Cow sharks. 7 Days, 7 Shark Species.
A taste of the Cow shark dive: Like their modern day cousins, the Great White shark, Seven Gill sharks are formidable predators of seals, sharks and fish.
Reaching over three meters and known to cooperatively hunt they are an unexpected surprise in this tranquil kelp forest environment.
Dive with this ancient lineage of extraordinary looking sharks in a completely environmentally responsible way. No “chum” or “scent” nor “bait” is used to attract these animals to the area. They occur naturally in these waters and are very curious and confident which makes them easy to photograph and film.
As the dive site is in a marine protected area, the ecosystem is very healthy! Kelp forest ecosystems around the Western Cape houses a vast variety of fish, shellfish, soft corals and sharks that can only be found in this environment. We see up to 6 different species of shark on a single dive!

Top Fly In Package
 Our supreme package for all divers who prefer to spoil themselves with a bit more time exploring Tofo and all its magnificent splendour.
This package will give you many opportunities to scuba and snorkel with the majestic Whale sharks. Scuba Mozambique recommends all divers, if possible, to make use of this fantastic package.
There are definite and strict rules regarding the manner in which you should conduct yourself when swimming with the Whale sharks. Currently the Whale sharks and Manta rays are this area’s biggest tourism attractions and they should be preserved and respected so that they continue to frequent the waters of Praia do Tofo. If divers do not respect the Whale sharks by keeping a steady distance, and not threatening nor touching them, they will soon leave the area to find a safer place to inhabit.
Mozambique contributes largely to the worlds Whale shark research as researchers go out nearly on a daily basis. Many times when visiting Praia do Tofo you will find yourself on a boat with a researcher explaining the ins and outs of what has already been discovered about this majestic sharks.
