The Mafia Islands have escaped the mass tourism status that is associated with other famous coastal towns on the Indian ocean due to lack of good beaches. However, this is compensated for by the rich and colourful fishes and coral, some of teh finest in the Indian Ocean, thus making Mafia a diving Mecca in Tanzania. Mafia Marine Reserve, the largest in East Africa, covers over 800kmsq around the Island and Chole Bay and is one of the best diving sites. The Marine life varies from small tropical fishes to Barracuda flying fish Red Mullet and Parrotfish. SNORKELLING WITH WHALE SHARKS is between the months of October and March one can indulge in a truly magical experience: swimming with Whale Sharks. WHALE WATCHING is in September and August we experience the Humpback Whale migration in the south of Mafia as they head for warm waters with their calves. These magical creatures can grow up to 14 metres long and weigh a whopping 40 tonnes
