About Amphitheater

Amphitheater is a shallow reef dive in the Tofo/Inhambane area, with a sandy bowl ringed by coral, pinnacles, caves, and overhangs. It works well as a check dive for open-water divers before moving on to deeper Tofo sites, and the route is more about slow reading than pushing depth. Macro life is the draw, and the protected setting still leaves room for beach-launch logistics and regional current to shape the day.
