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.
