From June to November, the Humpback whales are highly visible along the coast, making it the perfect time of year for whale watching. You don’t need to go on a boat to see these exquisite creatures, as Summer Sands has perfect sea views. They come come close to the shore line, sometimes appearing only meters away. Seeing these marine giants in their natural habitat is an experience and opportunity you won’t want to miss.

The Tofo marine area is increasingly gaining a reputation as one of the best diving spots in the world. It is highly likely that you will spot a whale shark on route to a dive and have the opportunity to snorkel with it. Mantas circle you in numbers every time you go down scuba diving off the famous Manta Reef. Also on show are cheeky devil rays, turtles, large schools of tropical fish, reef shark and the elusive harlequin shrimp.

Summer Sands welcomes all surfers to Mozambique. The best time to visit with your surfboard is in June, July and August, but if you don’t mind the on shore wind which blows pretty often, then surf season can last from February to October. The beaches are exquisite and filled with an enjoyable local vibe in the markets. A wetsuit will be necessary in the surf season, but for the rest, your board shorts will do just fine. Inhambane has some of the fast, hollow waves, but there is plenty of coast left to explore if you wish to find other world class breaks.

Summer Sands is superbly situated on a rocky cliff face, allowing excellent access for shore fishing. Local charters for deep-sea fishing are available and spear fishing is permitted off the entire coast.
