About this site
Shark Vaal lies off Inhambane on the southern coast of Mozambique, a stretch of the Indian Ocean known for its offshore reef systems reached by boat from beach towns like Tofo and Barra. Dive sites along this part of the coast are typically accessed via small craft launching directly through the surf. As a wall dive here, it reaches a maximum depth of around 33 metres and is rated advanced.
