Diving in Tofo – encounters with manta rays, whale sharks, and untouched marine life
Tofo Beach is one of the most spectacular diving areas in the world – and for good reason. The Indian Ocean off the coast of Inhambane is a paradise for lovers of big fish and offers breathtaking encounters that are otherwise only seen in documentaries.
One of the big highlights are manta rays, which glide elegantly through the water and often curiously come very close to divers. Equally impressive are whale sharks, the largest fish in the world, which are regularly sighted in the warm waters off Tofo – all year round, not just seasonally. In addition, you will encounter turtles, dolphins, barracudas, schools of mackerel, and countless colorful reef fish.
The dive sites around Tofo are diverse: from shallow reefs for beginners to deep, current-rich sites for experienced divers. Local diving schools know the waters like the back of their hand and offer a high level of safety, knowledge, and passion.
What makes diving in Tofo so special, however, is not only the diversity of the animals, but also the feeling of freedom. Here, you don’t dive in crowded hotspots, but in genuine, untouched nature. The visibility is often excellent, the water is warm, and every encounter feels intense and authentic.
Diving in Tofo is an unforgettable experience – a mosaic of colors, movement, and a deep connection with the sea.
