Diving tourism

Diving tourism is an emergent industry in Mozambique. Yet, there is a lack of understanding and communication between managers and several stakeholders.

In order to manage diving tourism in a sustainable way, we need to understand divers. Therefore, divers demographics and experiences have been collected in Zavora since December/2009.

The aim of this study is to evaluate divers preferences and experiences in a diving destination that is in its infancy. This will allow us to compare data with other more developed areas and drawn a robust strategic management plan to improve divers positive experiences and avoid the negative effects of uncontrolled development.

 In order to get such important information, socio-economic daily surveys using self-administered questionnaires have been used.
