Quirimbas Archipelago Scuba Diving Liveaboard Yacht Charter
Suitable for divers and non divers together (as there is so much to see and do for non divers)
Swashbuckling adventurers, mighty Sultans, Arabian pirates and buried treasure! The Islands of Quirimbas Archipelago certainly have a colourful history. As a major trade route for the empires of Greece, Rome, Egypt, Persia, Arabia, India, China and more recently Europe, everything from gold to slaves made their passage through these islands.
Today the ancient dhows still built to the same design as the vessels which for a 1000 years have plied the trade routes along the Eastern shores of Africa deliver a rather different treasure - an unimaginable underwater dive experience!
