A remote Mozambican beach village where whale sharks and manta rays arrive predictably — solo divers from across the world come to this dusty village for some of the Indian Ocean's greatest underwater encounters.
Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly
Tofo is Africa's whale shark capital and one of the continent's best solo dive destinations — the dive centres group solo travelers naturally, and the beach village atmosphere is genuinely social. Manta rays, whale sharks, and humpback whales (seasonal) make every dive extraordinary. The Tofo backpacker lodge community is excellent for meeting people.
