We offer diving holidays in small private groups, maximum 8 clients in the zodiacs. Our operator in Mozambique does a wonderful job in providing an excellent diving service to our clients.

Every diver will enjoy diving in the Tofo and Zovora area, whether he's an experienced or less experienced diver. The reefs form a wonderful underwater landscape with patches of hard and soft corals, colourfull fish, many rays, sharks, barracuda, jacks, tuna, turtles and many more. The big attraction of this place, that has gained a worldwide reputation in a very short time, are without a single doubt the Manta cleaning stations with many large manta rays and the largest fish on earth; the whaleshark.

From june through october you can see humpback whales breaching close to your zodiac. Different kinds of sharks can be found, such as leopard sharks, Zambezi or bull sharks and even tiger sharks can be spotted. If you're tired of looking at the big stuff, there's always Harlequin shrimps, nudibranches, leaf fish or frog fish to be spotted.

Most diving is done between 15 and 35 meters and Advanced Open Water Certification or equivalent is required. It is possible for divers with Open Water Certification only to do the Deep Dive Module of the Advanced Open Water Course and to join the group on the remaining deep dives upon completion. All the dive time is spent on the bottom and at the end of the dive you ascend to your safety stop at 5 meters and enjoy looking at the plancton, a large school of jacks or even a whaleshark or manta ray passing by.

The diving itself isn't difficult, but diving from a zodiac on a GPS position with a surface current and possibly high waves can be a little stressful for a novice diver. You need to dropp of the zodiac and descend immediately without surfacing, therefore briefings are important and divers are required to have at least 50 logged dives.

General: Tofo's showcase dive. World famous for the two Manta cleaning stations, first discovered by Carlos do Rocha in the 1960's. Since then this site has attracted marine biologists, cameramen and divers from around the world.
A gentle drift dive from North to South, your dive begins with a negative entry into 26m into the middle of a small amphitheatre teeming with life. The dive progresses through a series of pinnacles before the first cleaning station is reached, a shallower (21m) sandy area. At this cleaning station Mantas circle overhead to be cleaned by Goldies, Cleaner Wrasse and Butterfly fish. In good visibility this dive is amazing with upwards of ten Mantas circling overhead. Even in poor vis the sight of Mantas appearing from the mist above you is haunting and a moment to be cherished. At the end of the dive your ascent is often accompanied by groups of inquisitive Devil Rays wheeling about your safety stop.
This dive is a must do in Tofo. Because of the depth this is only suitable for advanced divers but is a favorite for people completing their advanced course or deep adventure dive. Ask about nitrox.

General: A 6-7 metre tall wall running for two kilometers. The wall drops from 26 to 33 metres and runs North/South with the predominant current. When conditions are right this is a fantastic dive and often overlooked by divers who know of the more famous Manta Reef.
The crenellated wall is inhabited by Giant Potato Bass (hence the name) and features several Manta cleaning stations. Although only ten minutes journey from the dive center this is definitely a pelagic dive. A proliferation of game fish: Great Barracuda, Kingfish, Pick Handle Pike as well as various rays (Manta, Eagle, Devil) Bowmouth Guitar Sharks, and, uniquely in Tofo, Blue Marlin.
This is an advanced drift dive with potentially strong and sometimes reverse currents and as such, is only suitable for advanced divers who have mastered the negative entry. However, the memory of a descent through schools of Barracuda onto a cleaning station while Devil Rays circle above is unforgettable. Highly recommended. Ask about nitrox.

General: This reef is shaped like a horseshoe. At 14 meters around the top and 19 metres around the base it forms a ragged wall lined with 6 swimthroughs and numerous overhangs and caves. The center of the horseshoe is a flat, white sandy area frequented by Blue Spotted Rays, Blue Stingrays and Whip-Tailed rays.
This is the best inshore reef we have found. As the name suggests it is full of surprises. Covering a large area it is a reef worth diving twice, once to focus on the wildlife and once to do the funky swimthroughs. Wildlife is typical of the area and depth: Morays, Lizardfish, Trumpetfish, Lionfish (Common and Clearfin), Scorpionfish, and a multitude of reef fish. It is also the reef with the best chance of seeing Whale Sharks on Scuba, as it is right in the path of the migrating Whale Sharks.
As we use this dive for OW qualifying dive 4 there are many opportunities to dive here. Two chances may not be enough.
