Hello Toni, I have never been to the province of Ihambane, yet, I am aware that you might get lucky contacting fisherman that are trawling for prawn - Try to go over the port. Talking to free divers or doing your own snorkel can produce good results if you are somewhat experienced about the habitats. The area is rich, but untrained eyes wont bring more than neritas. I strongly advise you to save some cash for the way out. You will have to sponsor the X-ray people at the airport....Corruption is now a leading voice in Mozambique, keep your eyes open. Let me know if you need any specific detail. All the best, David ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [log in to unmask] - a forum for informal discussions on molluscs To leave this list, click on the following web link: http://listserv.uga.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=conch-l&A=1 Type your email address and name in the appropriate box and click leave the list. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
