Inhaca Island
Situated almost 25 miles (40km) off the coast of Maputo, Inhaca
Island is an immensely popular African resort destination boasting
beautiful beaches, some of the Mozambique Channel's best coral
reefs, a historic lighthouse, marine biology museum and large areas
of protected forest. Easily accessible from the capital, it is a
favourite amongst snorkellers and divers who usually head for the
reefs at Santa Maria or to the lighthouse, or instead explore the
surrounding sunken wrecks. The Santa Maria reef has a strong drift
current that runs parallel to the shore and is fantastic for
snorkelling, while the Wall is a rocky ledge that drops 66ft (20m)
to the bottom and harbours numerous caves and ledges filled with a
variety of marine life. Game fishing is also popular on Inhaca
Island.
