This is one of our must-do activities that you will not want to miss while you are in Zanzibar. The tiny but exceptional Mnemba reef offers indeed some of the best and most spectacular spots in the whole Archipelago, if not in East Africa. On this trip, we might (85% chance) see dolphins while cruising from Nungwi to Mnemba, we will stop for a while and you can enjoy seeing dolphins swimming, also you can take photos. Also, there is a Sandbank beside Mnemba Island, we might go there after snorkeling when it is low tides. Mnemba is well known for the excellent clarity of its waters ( for this area of the Indian Ocean) and the unusually prolific and diverse corals and tropical marine life where you can able to see a lot of colorful fishes while Snorkeling. Some of the species that you can see at Mnemba reef include; 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.

Inclusions: Rice, Vegetable soup, Chapati, Tuna fish, Salads, etc, Bottle of waters available on the Dhow and at Lunchtime as many as you want., Use of Snorkelling equipment, Air-conditioned vehicle, All Fees and Taxes, Fruit Snacks (Watermelon, Pineapple, Bananas, Mangoes, Coconut, etc)

Pickup from Michamvi very early in the morning, we went to the north and take a boat to Mnemba. It was a long trip but worth it. There were so many dolphins playing so closer, we enjoyed it and also the marine life at Mnemba is amazing. Ahmed was there with us during this trip, he was so helpful. I really recommend the trip.
