Hi Kerri I talked to a guy called Mike email mike@flyafrica.com but the website dosent work any more. best thing is to do a South African search, .co.za .there are quite a few people here. Im not sure how many of them do self flying charters. shout if you cant find anything and I'll have a look

Look around before you stay at flamingo - Mozambique Vacations - Mozambique Hotels And Resorts - Mozambique Travel have a look at this site. it really depends on what you want, fun on the beach and ice cold cocktails, or more serious diving. Benguerra and marlin lodge are great African Safaris...

If your looking for a fun, cheap trip, then Tofo is the best bet. Vilanculos, bazaruto etc, is beautiful, there is a backpackers, and a couple of reasonably priced lodges, but if you stay on the mainland the dive site is a long boat ride away = more expensive. @ mile reef is the most amazing...

If you can, go to 2 mile reef off Benguerra Island, its the most amazing snorkelling! huge corals, fish everywhere, you dont need to dive there, just wear a tee shirt or something, I find it very hard to get out of the water there!

I played the Triangle in primary school, I was so bad they gave em a tambourine with out the bells! I promise to spray paint my kit pink with purple trim. I'll do anything to get to the ADD level! Professionally Advancing Dork Initiates

Good stuff! I was working in a very nice lodge in Mozambique, things were a little wild there, it was a hard 2 day drive to the border, where the nearest supermarket was, old tanks trucks etc burned out on the side of the road, and very scary police with big guns at every river crossing...

I have a citizen dive watch, logs a couple of dives, has depth alarm, and most of the bits a proper dive computer has, most importantly large hands and a rotating bezel. The only small problem is on most of the dives if I get it wet too long before the dive (on a rough beach launch) by the time...

Most important thing is to find if you can get spares for the motor, Ive bought some cheapies, only to spend days trying to find bits, small outboards are usually very easy to maintain. Do you like getting your hands dirty? will the owner let you try it for a day or two?

I spent a year there, about 5 years ago, the sewerage system from Accra ran straight into the sea on the main beach! once you were out of town there were some amazing places, I only went snorkeling, and the viz wasn't great, the fishing is amazing though!

Crimes not as bad as people make it out to be, just be careful, common sense is a wonderful thing. People will tell you what areas to avoid at what times, Hillbrow, Pretoria CBD after dark etc. From Pretoria it takes 6 hours to Durban, 15 hours easy drive including the border to Tofo. The...

Still in Very early planning stage, Im very fussy about boats, I dont like getting rocked to sleep at night! the best boat Ive looked at so far is 1.6 million us, second hand! so Im trying to get some quotes from South African boat builders. The price will be very high, mostly because the...

From the most places you would fly to Johannesburg, then the best option, and one of the most affordable is to charter a light plane. www.flyafrica.com commercial air travel in Mozambique is basic, but improving. I think it would be the boats responsibility to collect passengers from a...

Hi All Ive been thinking about setting up a liveaboard operating off the coast of Mozambique. The rough plan is a boat to accommodate 12 divers comfortably, with the ability to go up to the north in the Pemba area, or out to sea to Bassas Da India. Pemba has dozens of islands, with all kinds of...

under the ice, but Im scared of the cold! Bassas da India, once I have a boat! Australia caribean pacific Kariba dam wall, but im scared of getting shot! Basically anywhere I can see on google earth!

We used to get a lot of divers from lake Malawi, apparently the water is always calm, no currents, great viz etc. When they got to Mozambique it was a different story, raging currents, surge at 30m, scary launches. They had done all the skills, dives etc, but the training conditions were too...

Tofo is about to start building accomodation, it has to be finished by May because John and nikki are getting married at last, they need somewhere for the partygoers to stay!

There are about a dozen places in the area. Most accomodation will be a bit dissapointing! As far as I can remember there is barra lodge, barra reef, flamingo bay, owned by barra lodge, got very bad reviews, palm grove, white sands and lots more. look on google earth, make sure the right layers...

We went to 42 m at a place called shires quarry near durban on deep speciality course. Its got to be the worst dive site ever! 0 viz at 10m, freezing cold in 3mm wetsuits, water stinks and 2 of the 3 of us lost all torches so did the dive on 1 back up light, with all the silt couldnt see guages...

I would deinately dive from Tofo, they are closer to a lot of the reefs, lots of accommodation of all prices in town. Have a look at Tofo Scuba, (www.tofoscuba.co.za) best boats and equipment, generally the most professional dive centre in the area. have a blast. Ryan

Thanks all, Your twisting my rubber arm from around the world and its working!! have a look at this message from Chrysler, wasnt sure where to post it in a new thread Chrysler questions climate change
