Hidden away behind the petrol station several kilo-
metres before Tofo (on the right when coming from Inhambane) is this little place with

those with their own transport.

Getting There & Away
Chapas
run throughout the day along the 22km sealed road between Tofo and Inhambane,
departing Tofo from about 5am (Mtc10-15 for a large bus, one hour). To Maputo's Junta,
there's usually one direct bus daily, departing Tofo by about 4.30am (Mtc500, 7½ hours).
Fatima's Nest (

)
also has a daily shuttle to Maputo (Mtc700). Otherwise,
you'll need to go via Inhambane or Maxixe. If you do this and want to catch an early
north/southbound bus, it's possible in theory to sleep in Tofo, but for a more sure connec-
tion, stay in Inhambane the night before.
If you leave early from Maputo, it's possible to get to Inhambane in time to continue
straight on to Tofo that day, with time to spare.
