Twelve Unique Dive Sites
The team at BCSS have developed a number of individual dive sites, selected based on years of scientific exploration, to give Kisawa guests the best opportunity to experience swimming with “The Big Five” of the Western Indian Ocean.
Kisawa presents diving adventures with a difference, honouring the dynamic movements of the marine life, the tides, currents, water quality and the individual ecosystems and habitats.
The seascape offers encounters with humpback whales, manta rays (both oceanic and reef manta rays), various types of dolphins and over 10 species of sharks. The colourful coral reefs are home to a diverse range of fish, including humphead wrasses, countless types of butterflyfish and trevally’s.

3D Seabed Mapping
In a first for hospitality properties worldwide, all Kisawa dive sites have been mapped in 3D at high-resolution, using advanced scientific survey techniques.
The ocean floor mapping allows our guests to understand the topography and structure of the dive sites in fine detail, before they’ve touched down in Mozambique. Conversely, it allows our divemasters to give a thorough brief to Kisawa divers, ahead of what they are about to experience.
