Zanzibar catamaran and snorkelling tour to Mnemba Marine Park

4.6/5
10 reviews

You'll be picked up from your hotel in Zanzibar. Please choose your coast as per your hotel area during booking, and insert your hotel name at check-out.

  • North Coast: Kendwa and Nungwi
  • East Coast: Chwaka, Uroa, Pongwe, Kiwengwa, Pwani Michangani and Matemwe

Spend the whole day out on the water aboard an adult-only catamaran. Setting sail from Kendwa, you’ll cruise around the northern tip of the island and head to Mnemba Marine Park for a day that can be as energetic or chilled out as you like.

As the boat glides across the water, take advantage of the spacious net at the front to stretch out and soak up the sun. Keep an eye out for dolphins as you navigate towards the Mnemba atoll, located east of the mainland. A guided snorkelling experience awaits you there, offering a glimpse into the colourful corals and tropical fish that inhabit this part of the Indian Ocean.

Snorkelling can work up quite an appetite, so your onboard chef will prepare a barbecue lunch to tuck into, along with beers, wines and soft drinks. Afterwards, you have the choice to either try your hand at fishing or unwind, sipping on something sparkling, as dusk greets you upon your return to Kendwa.

This adult-only excursion promises a perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and natural beauty.

    We had such a lovely day out. Even though it was a little cloudy, it didn’t affect the experience at all. It was my first time snorkelling and I was nervous, but the staff were incredibly patient and one stayed with me the whole time to make sure I felt safe and comfortable. The snorkel spots were beautiful, the food was very good, and I loved that the locations weren’t overcrowded. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a relaxed and special day out.

    Guiderna var väldigt måna om oss ombord. Maten var helt underbar. Dom hade bra koll på att alla skulle få se och uppleva allt som ingick i upplevelsen. Det var helt magiskt.

    Das Erlebnis an sich war klasse. Die drei Guids am Schiff waren wirklich super und haben sich einfach richtig Mühe gegeben. Es war eine sehr entspannte Atmosphäre. Das Essen war richtig klasse. Für die Schnorchelphasen hätte es ein bisschen mehr Einweisung geben können. Ich kann die Tour wirklich jedem Empfehlen! Leider gab es am Ende nicht mehr die Möglichkeit auf Toilette zu gehen, da die Einrichtung bereits geschlossen war und niemand aufschließen konnte.

    Der Service war top, von der anreiße bis zum Rücktransport ins Hotel. Die Crew und das Essen war fehlerfrei. Der größte Kritikpunkt ist, dass nicht die Möglichkeit bestand zu Angel und wir maximal 15 Minuten geschnorchelt haben. Wir sind 3 mal um das selbe Riff geschnorchelt. Wir konnten nicht mit den Delfinen schwimmen, obwohl das alle Touristen um uns herum gemacht haben und der zweite Schnorchelspott der uns zugesagt wurde, wurde auch nicht angefahren. Preisleistung daher schlecht
