Itinerary and highlights

Your transfer car will bring you to the northern part of the island, where you will board a boat to bring you to the islands Tumbatu and Mwana na Mwana (meaning baby of the baby, as Tumbatu is the baby of Unguja). On the west side of the islands is an amazing reef, where you can enjoy one of the best snorkeling spots you can find around Unguja. On the boat, the crew will serve you fruit and soft drinks between your snorkeling sessions. The best time to go is around low tide, so you will snorkel just above the most colorful reef and try to spot a wide variety of tropical fish and, when you are lucky, even a turtle relaxing at the reef.
