Full description

Set out on an incredible full-day journey along the beautiful coastline and sparkling waters of Zanzibar, immersing yourself in the island's stunning seascapes and vibrant marine life. This unforgettable tour combines sailing, snorkeling, and exploring some of Zanzibar’s most scenic spots for a perfect day of adventure and relaxation.

Begin your day from the scenic areas of Paje, Jambiani, or Michamvi, where you’ll be picked up directly from your hotel and taken to Fumba, the starting point of the Safari Blue experience. Upon arrival, a warm and knowledgeable crew will greet you, providing a brief overview of the day’s itinerary, safety guidelines, and planned activities.

Board a traditional wooden dhow and cruise through the turquoise waters of Menai Bay, a conservation area rich in marine biodiversity. Though sightings aren't always guaranteed, you may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of playful dolphins. Stop at an untouched sandbank where you can relax, swim in the crystal-clear waters, or take in the picturesque surroundings.

Refreshments await, with freshly cut tropical fruits like mango, pineapple, and coconut, prepared on-site by the friendly crew. Your next stop will be a vibrant coral reef, offering excellent snorkeling opportunities. Dive in to explore the underwater world, with snorkeling gear provided and guides nearby for assistance. Admire the colorful coral formations and observe an array of tropical fish swimming by.

The journey continues as you sail toward Baobab Island, where a delicious seafood lunch awaits, featuring fresh lobster, grilled fish, calamari, and other delicacies. Vegetarian options are available upon request to cater to all guests. As you savor your meal beneath the shade of a towering baobab tree, take in the breathtaking views and the peaceful atmosphere of this island haven.

After lunch, glide through a tranquil mangrove lagoon, a unique ecosystem that supports diverse bird and marine species. Along the way, learn about the essential role mangroves play in protecting coastlines and preserving biodiversity. As the sun begins to dip in the sky, embark on your return journey to Fumba, enjoying the gentle sea breeze and beautiful views across Menai Bay.

Upon arrival, you’ll be transported back to your hotel, bringing an end to an amazing day filled with natural wonders, relaxation, and unforgettable memories of Zanzibar’s pristine coastline.

Very nice guide, it was a great trip overall. Our highlight was the return trip on the dhow sailing boat. The destinations are very touristy, but still worth seeing.

Response from provider

Thank you for your feedback. Please note the trip is shared with shared transfers, not private, and the boat capacity is 40 persons, which was not exceeded. The tour was done as planned, and we didn’t receive any complaints from other guests. We’re sorry it didn’t meet your expectations and appreciate your input. Kind regards Quality team
