Dive Southern Mozambique - Dive Destination

Bazaruto Archipelago:

Between the continent of Africa and the island of Madagascar lies a string of spectacular sub-tropical islands that rank alongside Australia's Great Barrier Reef as one of the earth's superb underwater wildernesses - the Bazaruto Archipelago.

One of the most beautiful places in Africa and famous for its pristine beaches, the world is starting to discover what we here in Africa have known for awhile - that these islands offer world class diving.

The waters around the Bazaruto Archipelago World Heritage Site and National Park are an ecological paradise. At 1400km², it is one of the largest marine conservation areas in the Indian Ocean.

With sites at a depth of 12 to 30m and visibility up to 40m you will discover protected reefs teeming with dolphin, hump back whales, whale sharks, sharks, manta and spotted eagle rays, game fish, green turtles and giant lobster. The endangered dugong of which only a very small number still exist, swim in the shallow crystal clear waters that are also home to abundant starfish, soft and hard corals, anemones, seahorses and a dazzling array of beautiful tropical fish.

Traditional Arab dhows, motor launches and floatplanes will whisk you off to our carefully chosen lodges and beach resorts. Tourism in Mozambique is still developing, and there is a good range of facilities from simple eco chalets and camps to luxury beach resorts. These beautiful properties wonderfully combine the magic of an African safari lodge set amongst some of the most unspoilt areas in the world.

Apres Dive and Non Divers:

Each day will be a day of discovery whether you dive or not and there are plenty of other activities to enjoy during your stay in the archipelago.

Snorkelling, island hopping, kayaking, water skiing, para-sailing, tubing, wind surfing, ski paddling, deep sea, rock and surf fishing, horse riding, bird watching, sunset dhow cruises, scenic drives or if you just want to relax - sunbathing.

In the evening feast on seafood of every description with exotic Portuguese style dishes, lobster, crab, fresh fish and prawns.
