Inhambane Province

A coastal province in southern Mozambique, home to the dive destination of Tofo and the Bazaruto Archipelago, and a top choice for a seaside holiday.

Inhambane Province lies on the coast of southern Mozambique, with many sandy beaches and lagoons. Tofo Beach is known for year-round sightings of whale sharks and manta rays, and is a hotspot for diving and snorkeling; Vilankulo in the north is the gateway to Bazaruto Archipelago National Park, where you can see dugongs and coral reefs. The provincial capital, Inhambane, is an old port town with colonial character. Humpback whales can be seen from about July to October, and the dry season is the most comfortable time to visit. Both Inhambane and Vilankulo have airports.
