Scuba diving in Southern Mozambique


Southern Mozambique

Based in the small, but vibrant town of Ponta do Ouro, which has nightlife to suit all age groups, long walks on the beach, efficient dive tour operators and accommodation from the very basic, to the classy sea facing apartments, Mozambique offers divers a casual and relaxed diving experience.

Dive camps are situated on the beachfront, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation.
All kitting up is done within the dive camps and once complete, kitted dive gear is loaded, and along with divers, transported a short distance to the waiting dive boat on a pristine beach.
Launching from the beach through the surf line, is exhilarating and an adventure all on its own. Dolphins can frequently be seen playing in the wake of the boat and sightings of the amazing whale shark are not un-common. Swims with these gentle giants are available.

Mozambique Dive sites

At all sites there is a large variety of fish life, ranging from Mantis Shrimp to potato bass, rays and moray eels to turtles and clown fish to trigger fish. For the colour enthusiast, it is a breathtaking kaleidoscope of wonderment.

For the “adrenalin junkie” there are spectacular dive sites that produce Zambezis, dusky sharks and hammerheads as well as other magnificent game fish such as king fish, potato bass and manta rays.

Mozambique is renowned for its gentle conditions and excellent visibility. Divers of all calibers will enjoy the Mocambican experience.
