Diving & snorkelling experiences

The Bazaruto Marine National Park is home to a menagerie of underwater creatures, from the rare dugong to green sea turtles and over 2000 species of fish. The archipelago is also a snorkelling Nirvana with myriad reefs to choose from, and balmy and crystal-clear water. After a boat ride across the bay, enter a world of underwater flora and fins along the reefs off Paradise Island or the Two Mile Reef, one of the most unique ecosystems in Mozambique. Spend as long as you like exploring the colourful coral formations, keeping your eyes keen to spot the endangered species of the Mozambican Channel. While the islands off Mozambique's east coast are temperate most of the year, the dry season (May to November) is the most enjoyable.

Crystal-clear, turquoise waters, year-round balmy weather and lively reefs, the southern coast of Mozambique promises dives that are out of this world. And a collection of incredible scuba diving sites is only a short boat-ride away. PADI-certified dive masters are ready to accompany you to the location of your choice, including the famous Two Mile Reef, which has reefs that begin at 5 metres and reach depths of 22 metres. Once you break the water's glassy surface, the reefs are a hive of activity and colour. Part of a thriving marine national park, you'll be dazzled by darting shoals of fish, forests of coral, and everything from rays and reef sharks to diving pods of dolphin and the secretive dugong. Conditions and underwater visibility remain ideal all year, but the dry season months (May to November) tend to be the most enjoyable.
