This tour offers a scenic boat trip from Muyuni Beach to Mnemba Island, one of the closest departure points for the trip. The shorter journey can be a more comfortable option than departing from Nungwi, where the ocean may sometimes be rougher. Enjoy exceptionally clear turquoise waters, colorful tropical fish and coral reefs, with an estimated 99% chance of seeing plenty of fish and over 80% chance of spotting dolphins in their natural environment. Admire Zanzibar’s beautiful coastline and capture unforgettable photos along the way. Dolphin sightings and swimming opportunities depend on sea conditions.
