Safari Blue & Snorkeling

A day out on a traditional dhow sailing boat around Zanzibar's southern coast, with stops for snorkeling over coral reefs and a fresh seafood lunch cooked on a sandbank. One of Zanzibar's most consistently well-reviewed full-day excursions.

The day typically includes two or three snorkeling stops, time swimming in a sandbank lagoon at low tide, and a barbecue lunch of fresh-caught seafood, fruit and rice served right on the sand. Departures run daily from the southern coast, making it an easy add-on to any Zanzibar beach stay.
