What to expect

Get ready for an incredible day in Zanzibar with this full-day adventure. Your journey starts in the village of Fumba, where you'll hop onto a traditional wooden dhow that will take you through the beautiful Menai Bay Conservation Area.

This amazing area features peaceful islands, shifting sandbanks, and colorful reefs, making it the perfect spot for two guided snorkeling sessions. Keep your eyes open for dolphins, but remember that seeing them isn’t guaranteed since they’re wild animals.

After your snorkelling fun, you’ll head to Kwale Island for a delicious seafood lunch paired with fresh tropical fruits, all enjoyed right on the sand. Take some time to relax and appreciate the stunning surroundings after your meal.

Your amazing day will finish as the crew turned off the engine and raises the sails to bring you back home in classic sailing if the weather permit.

    Traveled with family

    Nice safari with the boat, great sights when snorkeling, and a lot of seafood amd fruit to taste. My son's appreciated that there also was a chicken option. Sailing back on sails, without engine, was such a bliss. We could have used a bit more time, both snorkeling and on Kwale Island. Would have loved to know beforehand that wading in waist high water was unavoidable.

    Overall decent trip, great food on the beach. One big issue there were to many people on the boat making it cramped instead of a relaxing experience. 20 on a boat this size is not great and could have easily been split in to two boats.

    Really well run, this boat tour was an absolute joy for all the family, the guides were competent and entertaining, safety was a priority but they were generous with their time and experience and made the whole trip amazing. Food was incredible and snorkelling breathtaking - an incredible day!

    Goede lunch en zeer vriendelijk en hulpvaardige bootpersoneel. Maar.....beter erbij vermelden, dat men in - en uit boten moet klauteren. Dit is voor ouderen niet eenvoudig. Als het personeel niet zo behulpzaam was geweest, dan had ik het niet gered. Grote, dikke pluim voor hun.
