Ah, here is the famous village of Tofo, known to backpackers for its vibe, beaches, parties, and scuba diving. In season, it is possible to see humpback whales, whale sharks, and manta rays. Here is a place I really liked.

I stayed there for 12 days and I did several dives, my advanced PADI diving course, a nice kayak trip, and of course, a few nights out for parties. The diving is the topic of the next post.

Kayak trip

Island of Inhambane - Mozambique

One day, I did a kayak trip followed by a visit on Inhambane Island and finally the return trip on a typical dhow.

On that day, I had for company Jennifer, Amin, and a guide.
