TZ Aquanauts conduct night time surf ingress into mangrove and secured facility to test clandestine navigation and insertion procedures

Crocodiles and other nighttime predators aren't the only thing stalking the mangrove rivers at night. TZA isn't afraid to get wet and sandy when it's dark out


Several Crocodiles have been spotted on the rivers, including a 9fter, but that is not going to keep us outta the ink.
There were several large predators swimming through the darkness heard splashing around the dark that night, but nobody heard TZA slip onto the beach. Security forces were out patrolling the rivers and the docks with their flashlights, but that why you hold your breath Go Teame!

Colin is a professional who consistently asks the best of himself and leads through demonstrable action and integrity. I have always been confident placing the safety of myself and my clients under Colin's supervision"
