DIVING:

The Dive Resort is located on Mozambique’s Manta Coast. The dive centre is nestled among palm trees on the shores of the warm Indian Ocean. Apart from the friendly Mozambique people and breathtaking scenery, the region is fast becoming world famous for its spectacular diving. The diving here in Mozambique compares with some of the best in the world and is still a relatively well-kept secret. From the awesome sightings of Manta Rays, Whale sharks and Humpback Whales to the sought after Harlequin Shrimp, Frogfish and Sea Horses – there is something to please everyone. The warm waters of the Indian Ocean are teeming with life and the reefs are pristine. We have over 1000 species of fish as well as Manta Rays, Whalesharks, Dolphins, Turtles, migrating Humpback Whales and the mythical Dugong. The list is endless, the colours of the pristine reefs, beyond description and we are still discovering uncharted reefs.

There are two completely different diving environments for your diving pleasure: There are16 different reefs out to sea, that range in depth from 7 – 40 metres, and our very own Barra Lagoon near the mangrove swamps, which has its own unique eco-system.
Water temperatures range from 29 degrees celcius in our summer months to 22 degrees celcius in winter. Visibility ranges from 8m to 40m, depending on how much plankton there is in the water.

The dive centre is located right on the beach and all our diving in the ocean is enjoyed from semi rigid diving boats. Our Divemasters carry a buoy line, and no anchors are dropped on our reefs.

We also offer Snorkelling and Ocean Safari Trips. The Ocean safari is a two hour trip, where we search for anything on the surface from Dolphins and Whalesharks to Humpback Whales and pelagic fish feeding and hunting. Depending on the season, any of the marine creatures featured below can be spotted.
