Plongée à Tofo Beach — Mozambique
Tofo Beach is where Africa's Indian Ocean megafauna concentrates. Whale sharks are present year-round (peaking November–March), manta rays visit cleaning stations, and humpback whales migrate through from June to November. The diving infrastructure is basic but the marine encounters are genuinely world-class.
