Diving In Mozambique
Incredible, unspoilt, miles from anywhere, and surely some of the best diving in the world. Mozambique was off the radar for many years, but now has some of the finest diving and sexiest beach accommodation in the world.
Divers love Mozambique for the mega thrills... the big stuff; the whale sharks, manta rays and serious large fish.
The islands that make up the Bazaruto archipelago in the south have some really fantastic dive spots that are worth writing home about, but you get them all to yourself in the Qurimbas, Northern Mozambique. Here, the best is Vamizi, voted one of the Sunday Times' Top Ten dive spots of the world. This is still pretty uncharted, pristine diving and the visibility can be stunning. Dive schools at all of our favourite locations will take novices through their paces on PADI courses, or proper diving safaris for the more advanced. 
The Quirimbas Archipelago is in our view Africa's finest beach destination. The rewards of travelling this far are simply outstanding; the area's remoteness has protected some beautiful islands. The result is exclusivity and privacy that is unheard of in Africa nowadays; the beaches and reefs are completely untouched. We cannot rave more about this area!
Bazaruto Archipelago is one of Africa's finest beach destinations. Consisting of two huge islands, Bazaruto itself and neighbouring Benguerra, and two smaller islands, Santa Isobel and Santa Carolina, Bazaruto offers great beaches and world class diving. The accommomadtions here are all of a good quality and a marine park covers the majority of the area protecting some sublime reefs.
Best East African Dive Lodges
Set on a vast beach that competes with anywhere in the world, Vamizi consists of 13 extravagant rooms spread at one end of a 7km long beach. Rooms are huge with massive four poster beds, open lounge areas and huge bathrooms
It is situated in Bazaruto on the southwest shore of Benguerra Island, an area whose beach was seemingly made for postcards; one of the finest beaches in the world.
