HECTIC Shorebreak Surf Launch at Praia do Tofo in Mozambique

The point is to learn from the carefully choreographed show put on by this captain and his crew this delightful Tofo afternoon. These guys are off on a dive or maybe even an o...
Perfect Launch at Ponta D Ouro

Perfect Launch at Ponta: arriving in Ponta D’ Oura after a five-year break and you can hardly see the change. There is hardly anything to report. Except for a few paved roads and a bunch more tourist establishments, the place has stayed exactly the same. The same as it was 20 or even 30 years ago. The same beach vibe that begins at Ponta - and never ends - here in Mozambique. Diving and Dolphin...

During this transition zone between the wet and dry seasons, our few remaining navigable river mouths can play havoc with your launch plans. The tide pulse and the flood pulse are busy hammering it our right now. The tide pulse will prevail as the dry season comes upon us. But don't trust the flood pulse in such an angry mood right now! El Nino has threatened to calm things down this year. So w...

The El Nino dry spell we are currently experiencing has slowed the flow of the river somewhat. This makes for narrow channels and shallo...

มุมมอง 821ปีที่แล้ว
Hiding to nowhere on Protea Reef: I watched helplessly as the reel in front of me, just melted away line. The sound was deafening. I was absolutely flummoxed. For the longest time, I can’t remember being in such a state. “I am sick n tired of big fish!” - going through my head. It had just been 15 minutes of craziness. And I had no idea at this stage, the dire future that screaming reel had in ...

    Howzit! I'm interested in launching my Turtle-ski with 6hp Suzuki in the area mostly for some fun on the river but also at sea on the tiny swell days. I have buoyancy cert with cat E. I'm just curious about conditions of the river / depth / how far one can travel up etc etc, Also is the slipway / launch site for public use? And any other useful info would be great, thanks!

    Damn that was a shallow launch. Luckily we have the privilege of a 30ft butt Catt incase we need to take a wave broadside or head on. I've noticed that the mono hulls are more manurvrable but when it comes to taking waves....... EISH!!!
