Highlights
This is one of our most recommended activities in Zanzibar. You can swim and snorkel at three different spots: Dolphins, relaxing at the Sandbanks, and Snorkeling at the Mnemba Reef. Mnemba Island was ranked as the #1 Best Beach Destination in Africa by Tripsavvy.
During this trip, we usually encounter pods of bottlenose dolphins, ranging from 10 to 20. They are usually grey in color, measure two to four meters in length, and have a curved mouth that gives the appearance that they are always smiling.
While snorkeling, you can spot different species of fish, such as Angel Fish, Blue Spotted Rays, Black Snappers, Groupers, Red Tooth Triggers, Flounder, Octopuses, Leaf Fish, Scorpion Fish, Stone Fish, Frog Fish, and lots of Trevallies.
Mnemba Island is connected with a Sandbank (Sandbar) that is only accessible at low tides. The beach around the Sandbank is so beautiful with crystal clear water and white sand.
Itinerary
Mnemba Island
Please remember the following details: This tour offers three activities in one package: a Dolphin Tour, Snorkeling at Mnemba Reef, and a visit to the Sandbank. The tour will begin with the Dolphin tour. Dolphins can be spotted at Kombe, Tangini, West Garden, Kichwani, or near Mnemba Island, all located northeast of Zanzibar Island. These areas are less crowded with tourists when visited early. You can observe groups of 10-30 dolphins up close in this area, and there are more than 1000 dolphins in total. Although dolphins are wild animals and can roam the open sea, there is a 95% chance of sighting them. After the Dolphin tour, we will proceed to Mnemba Island reef. This reef is renowned for its diverse marine life, making it a haven for snorkelers. Many people consider the Mnemba reef to be a magical place. While some may compare it to other famous reefs like the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, each reef has its own unique characteristics. Finally, we will head to the Sandbank located near Mnemba. The water near the Sandbank is exceptionally clear and calm, resembling a natural pool. It is an ideal place for relaxation.
