Overview

Experience three of Zanzibar’s must-do outdoor activities in one seamless, private tour. This carefully crafted excursion takes you to the island’s northeastern waters for a thrilling dolphin encounter, an unforgettable snorkeling session at the Mnemba Island Reef, and a relaxing visit to the idyllic Sandbank.

Start your day with a dolphin tour in areas such as Kombe, Tangini, West Garden, Kichwani, or near Mnemba Island—prime spots known for their abundant dolphin populations. These areas are less crowded early in the day, offering a peaceful, intimate experience with groups of 10 to 30 dolphins. With over 1,000 dolphins in the region, there's a 95% chance of seeing them in the wild.

After the dolphin tour, head to the Mnemba Island Reef, a renowned snorkeling destination. The reef is teeming with vibrant marine life, including angel fish, rays, and other tropical species. Its crystal-clear waters and diverse corals make it a paradise for snorkelers, and many consider it one of the most magical reefs in the world, often compared to the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, yet unique in its own way.

Conclude your adventure with a visit to the serene Sandbank near Mnemba. The calm, shallow waters here resemble a natural pool, offering a perfect spot to unwind and take in the tranquil surroundings.

This full-day tour combines adventure, exploration, and relaxation—offering an unparalleled way to experience the best of Zanzibar’s coastal beauty.
