Tips

- Boat Departure from Nungwi BeachBoard a traditional motorized boat and begin your journey along the sparkling waters of Zanzibar’s northern coastline. Your captain and guide will brief you on safety and the day’s plan.15 minutes
- Dolphin Watching and SwimmingAs the boat cruises offshore, your guide will help spot pods of bottlenose dolphins, which often play in the early morning hours. Once located, you’ll have a chance to gently slip into the water and swim alongside these graceful marine mammals — a highlight of the trip. The guide will advise on responsible dolphin interaction to ensure a respectful and memorable experience.45 minutes
- Cruise to Tumbatu Island ReefContinue the boat ride toward Tumbatu Island, known for its preserved and untouched coral reef system. Unlike more touristy snorkeling areas, this location is relatively private and ideal for peaceful exploration.40 minutes
- Snorkeling Session at Tumbatu ReefsGear up with provided snorkeling equipment and dive into crystal-clear waters. Spend approximately one hour exploring the rich underwater world — teeming with colorful reef fish, sea cucumbers, starfish, and, with a bit of luck, lionfish and stonefish. Your guide will help point out unique species and hidden gems.1 hour
- Fresh Fruits and Relaxation OnboardAfter snorkeling, return to the boat and enjoy a refreshing platter of tropical fruits such as mango, pineapple, and watermelon, along with bottled water. Relax, soak up the sun, or ask questions about the marine ecosystem.30 minutes
- Return to Shore and Drop-OffCruise back to Nungwi Beach while enjoying the scenic coastal views. Once onshore, you’ll be driven back to your original pickup point or hotel, wrapping up a refreshing and adventure-filled marine experience.15 minutes
