I am leaving the Egypt's Red Sea.....What are the good places to dive in Mozambique??

Question

I have been working as an instructor here along the Red Sea Coast of Egypt for 6 months. I want to go to Mozambique for a while and live/instruct. Any suggestions???

Answer 1

I only suggest being careful. There are earthquakes that are causing the red sea to part again. Seriously.

Answer 2

Inhambane province, Inhambane, is a scenic and old port town with a very unique charm. Inhambane has a bank, shops, markets, petrol station, museum, public phones and a bus terminus. Inhambane and the surrounding coastline and beaches are one of the most developed tourist areas along the coast of Mozambique. The town itself does not offer much accommodation options for tourists as most travelers tend to visit the surrounding areas of the actual Inhambane town.

Inhambane has a nice tropical climate and it supports coconut plantations and mangrove swamps. Inhambane as a City is steeped in history as it was a favorite place for ancient sailors and slave traders to stop and replenish their resources. The natural estuary allows vessels to enter a naturally calm area where there was always fresh water and supplies. Vasco De Gama the famous Portuguese adventurer made Inhambane one of his favourite stop off points as him and his men were able to moor their ships in the calm bay and replenish before continuing to and from the east. The name Inhambane means the place of the friendly people and still today this legend lives on with the local population being extremely friendly and happy. The local population tap the juice of the coconut trees during the season when the trees are flowering and with this sap they make a favorite alcoholic drink called Sura. At certain times of the year (Sura season) there are lots of celebrations and visitors are able to taste the powerful local brew at their own peril.

Also -Guinjata Bay has a stunning dive centre in the totally unspoiled paradise of Guinjata Bay, Mozambique. This beautiful location boasts stunning coral reefs, awesome resident marine life in a totally relaxing rustic atmosphere which will take you away from the 'normal' world that most of us are used to. Paradise is waiting
