Diving in the Chinhoyi Caves

The Chinhoyi Caves, previously known as Sinoia Caves, are a cave system of limestone and dolomite caverns and tunnels formed over millions of years by rainwater. Chinhoyi Caves is regarded to be on a par with some of the best dive sites in the world and has fantastic visibility. Divers of all qualifications have something to enjoy, although buoyancy control is a must. You will need to dive with a Zimbabwe registered dive club. During your dive, you’ll see one of the caves contains coins tossed in by observers, and another is littered with bones.
