Diving & Snorkelling Safely

Dive safety

Mozambique is a big country and diving is often done in isolated areas, so keeping safe is crucial, we only use registered quality centres that we have personally dived with to ensure standards of equipment, boats, staff and support are in place.

We recommend dive insurance is taken out on all dive trips and offer the DAN SA trip insurance to all our customers – see details.

Dive Certification

All dive centres in Mozambique will require to see your dive card and preferably your log book (to see level of certification and when you last dived) if you have not dived in the last 6 months they will ask you to undergo a scuba review – do not be offended it is simply to make sure everyone on the dive is safe.

Before completing the Scuba Review, divers will be required to fill out a medical questionnaire. If any condition on the questionnaire applies to you, you will need to bring a physician's letter stating that you are "FIT TO DIVE WITHOUT RESTRICTION".

Dive Insurance

We recomend that any Diver visiting South Africa, Mozambique or Zanzibar takes out insurance with Divers Alert Network (DAN) as this is by far the most recognised and reliable insurance for divers in Southern Africa. If you don't already have membership you can take out temporary membership with DAN South Africa.
