Safari Blue, Zanzibar

Safari Blue trip is a full day sailing around mangroves and snorkeling along Menai bay, which is one of the best coral reefs in Zanzibar. Main activities on this day are visiting Kwale Island, sandbank relaxing, swimming, snorkeling and enjoy sea food BBQ and side dishes. 

The underwater world at Menai bay is unbelievably spectacular. You will witness countless colourful fishes and other sea creatures that survive among the coral reefs and underwater plants which together form the barrier reef ecosystem in the bay.

The Safari starts in morning and you will be transferred to Fumba village south-west of Zanzibar Town, were you will board a traditional Dhow (sailing boat) and make your way to a one of the sandbank in the middle of the ocean. You can either use the time there to relax, sunbath and enjoy the beautiful scenery, or do snorkeling close to the sandbank. 

Afterwards you will stop at another well-chosen snorkeling spot to gaze at the abundant and diverse marine life through translucent waters before heading to Kwale Island to have lunch. Explore the island, climb an ancient baobab tree, walk along the beach, view coral formations and discover hermit crabs scurrying around. 

The last destination on your adventure will be a ravishingly beautiful natural lagoon which is perfect to have a last dip in the crystal clear water before you head back to Fumba village and Stone Town.

This trip can also be done on either visiting only Nakupenda Sandbanks or Via Prison Island.
