About this site
Barra Lagoon lies near Barra Beach on the Inhambane Peninsula, along the Indian Ocean coast of southern Mozambique, just north of Inhambane Bay. The area is known for its sheltered lagoon waters and nearby ocean access points used by dive operators based around Tofo and Barra. The site itself is shallow, reaching only around 5 metres, yet it is rated an advanced dive, and divers are asked to treat the environment as delicate given the fragile nature of the lagoon floor. Divers have reported dugongs, pipefish, and seahorses here, making careful buoyancy and minimal contact with the bottom a priority.
