Snorklers, and divers will be happy to hear that there is a large coral reef that runs parallel and quite far off shore. This large coral reef naturally protects the bay from the strong waves during high tide, making it calms & safe for swimmers.
Beautiful corel pools can be explored during low tide and plenty of shells can be found.
Wenela Tidal Pool, about 2km South is a natural underwater blow-hole. The tidal pool has an underwater channel going to the ocean, creating a "blow-whole" effect. This is definitly a tidal pool to see - and not to swim in!
Bird enthusiasts will enjoy the few fresh water lakes about 40km (30 minute drive), north from Xai-Xai, as these lakes are home to a large variety of bird species. These lakes are great for Other activities, such as canoeing, paddle skiing, wind & Kite surfing.
