Liquid Dive Adventures operates boat dives at Praia do Tofinho, featuring a reef system that transitions into a drop-off. The topography includes wall and drift sections, with depths ranging from 5 to 33 metres. Divers should be prepared for variable currents and visibility between 5 and 30 metres. Due to the depth and current, this site is suited for intermediate divers with Advanced Open Water certification. Species recorded around this area include zebra sharks, potato bass, reef stonefish, and various shrimp species such as harlequin and peacock mantis. Always confirm conditions with the operator, as strong currents can develop around the pinnacles and surface surf requires careful entry management.

The shore entry involves surf and a shore break, so let the boat crew guide your timing and entry technique before you jump. Current is variable and can run hard, so confirm the day's conditions with the dive operator before gearing up, and ensure your SMB is rigged and ready before every descent.
Accessible by plane to Inhambane or Vilankulos, or by bus from Maputo. Driving is straightforward but should be done in daylight due to lack of street lights and presence of potholes.
