Managed to fit in 3 days of amazing diving in Tofo, Mozambique, before going on to Maputo for work.
I stayed at Casa Barry (www.casabarry.com) which has very nice rooms, hot water etc, and good food at the restaurant (very, very slow service!). 10 mins walk along the beach from the village, plenty of hangouts and a nice little market. Price was U$70 per night for a single occupancy. No need for breakfast since I left to dive every day before 7:00 AM.
Diving with Tofo Scuba (::.. Tofo Scuba ..:: - Home) was fantastic, great people and boats. I bought my own, but the rental gear looks great. Diving profiles are aggresive and rewarding. Everything that you imagine is there, Mantas, whale sharks, Devil rays, huge morays, white tip reef sharks. And at the same time fantastic macro life forms, Nudibranches, shrimp, corals etc. Dived at Manta Reef, Office, Hogwarts, Giants, Sherwood, all fantastic and special in their own way. Currents are strong and negative, fast descents are the order of the day. 6 dive package works out at about U$45 a dive.
Food at TofoScuba is very good and well priced. Dino's pizza is great and don't forget to hang out at Fatima's Nest with the backpackers ($3 a night for camping up to $10 for a cabin).
