    Zanzibar Snorkeling Diving Full Day Tour Mnemba Atoll Zanzibar Snorkeling Diving Full Day Tour Mnemba Atoll Zanzibar Snorkeling Diving Full Day Tour Mnemba Atoll Zanzibar Snorkeling Diving Full Day Tour Mnemba Atoll

    Zanzibar Snorkeling Diving Full Day Tour Mnemba Atoll is a sea safari excursion (0900 Hours to 1500 Hours) is a great day out, not to be missed.

    It includes world class snorkeling at the famous Mnemba Island reef, a marine conservation area, followed by a scrumptious seafood barbeque on the idyllic Muyuni beach.

    Mnemba island is 3.2 km/ 2 miles off the northeast coast of Zanzibar island (Unguja). You reach Mnemba Island reef by boat, mainly from Nungwi (Ras Nungwi) – a fishing village and dhow building center which is a 1 hour 30 minutes drive from Stone Town.

    It takes about 40 minutes to reach the Mnemba Island reef snorkeling spot from Nungwi. Mnemba Island is a privately owned island with access restricted to guests of the luxurious AndBeyond Mnemba Island.

    We drop you off directly at the Mnemba Island reef, which lies a few hundred yards from Mnemba Island. Mnemba Island reef is a Marine Conservation area, where you can admire corals and tropical fish that many of us have only seen in an aquarium, sea turtles and dolphins.

    Diving at Mnemba is stunning, on the inside it’s like being in a giant aquarium and the outside offers excellent wall and drift dives. The surrounding waters and area around Mnemba Island are an important breeding ground for Green Turtles while a host of migratory wading birds use the island as a secure roost.

    The fragile coral reef eco-systems support countless fish species and microorganisms while gigantic Whale Sharks, Humpback Whales and dolphins frequent the deeper waters.

    What makes Mnemba Atoll different to diving from town is the amount of schooling fish, from Striped Snapper, Surgeon Fish and up to ten green Turtles can be seen on one dive.

    If you look hard enough you will find the masters of disguise the Frog Fish who camouflage themselves so that they are not seen by predators.

    The depth of the water is the same in all the reef area (6 -16 feet/ 2 – 4 meters). On the sea bed, look our for blue starfish, red-knobbed starfish or the fearsome crown-of-thorns starfish, a poisonous, coral-eating species. Green turtles can occasionally be seen at this spot.

     Zanzibar Snorkeling Diving Full Day Tour Mnemba Atoll Itinerary

    0730 Hours: This Zanzibar sea safari departs from Stone town (or your pick up location in Zanzibar upon request) followed by a 1.5 hour trip on surface roads along the stunning north-east coast of Zanzibar to Nungwi (Ras Nungwi) – a fishing village and dhow building center.

    0900 Hours: Depart Nungwi on a boat ride.

    1000 Hours: After 45 minutes to an hour by boat we dive in the waters around Mnemba Island reef, protected natural park, where you can admire corals and tropical fish that many of us have only seen in an aquarium, sea turtles and dolphins.

    Dolphin sightings are common. Two amazing snorkel sites await you at Mnemba, each very different from the other, from coral gardens to a steep reef that disappears into the abyss.

    The depth of the water is the same in all the reef area (6 -16 feet/ 2 – 4metres). You will find yourself above a reef of varying quality (some areas are wonderfully preserved, while others seem damaged by the area's high visitor numbers).

    The reef is protected and fishing is forbidden, so the density of fish here is higher than in many other places in Zanzibar. In turn you will come across shoals of dozens of Moorish idols, snappers, clownfish in their anemones and a host of other species.

    On the sea bed, look out for blue starfish, red-knobbed starfish or the fearsome crown-of-thorns starfish, a poisonous, coral-eating species.

    Green turtles can occasionally be seen at this spot, since they go to the island's beaches to lay their eggs at certain times of year. Snorkeling is done in 2 locations over about 1.5 hours – each swim around half an hour.

    1300 Hours: After your second snorkelling trip you are heading from Mnemba Atoll to the opposite side, an area called Muyuni Beach. Here you can enjoy your lunch with fruit and drinks, and a mouth-watering sea food and mixed grill barbeque.

    You will have ample time after your lunch to relax on this beautiful secluded beach before your trip continues with a sail back to Nungwi. The excursion ends with a transfer back to the hotel/ residence in Zanzibar.

    Jozani Forest Zanzibar butterfly centre Zala park day tour combines three of Zanzibar Stone town attractions.

    You tour begins at 0800 Hours with a pick up from your hotel/ residence and a transfer to Jozani Forest located in the centre of the Jozani-Chwaka Bay National Park, 38 km south-east of Stone Town.

    The forest is a great place to encounter many indigenous varieties of flora and fauna, including the Zanzibar Red Colobus monkey, Blue Sykes’ monkeys, Bush pigs, Aders duiker antelopes, Elephant shrews, Chameleons and numerous birds and butterflies.

    From Jozani forest we visit the Zanzibar Butterfly Centre located 4.3 km's from the centre of Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park.

    We take a tour of East Africa’s biggest butterfly zoo, as you witness varying species in every stage of their amazing life-cycle within a fascinating tropical garden environment.

    About 400-600 butterflies live in a richly vegetated aviary. Inspect the tiny butterfly eggs, touch and hold the hungry caterpillars and watch them nibble away at the leaves.

    Admire the beauty of the butterfly pupae before witnessing them open up to hatch. We later visit Zala Park – Zala stands for Zanzibar Land Animals and it is a park where "Zanzibar's native species live in beautiful natural surroundings." 

    The park is located 5 km's from Jozani Park and is another interesting nature reserve, this time for reptiles.

    One of the park’s main attractions is its reptile inhabitants, which include pythons, chameleons, geckos, tortoises, crabs, dikdik (mini gazelle-like animals), striped lizards, monitor lizards and hyrax (the closest living species to the elephant).

    You will also see various species of fruit-bearing trees such as orange, lime, grapefruit, nutmeg, banana, ginger, chilies, black peppers and cinnamon.

    Later return back to your hotel/ residence.
