What you can expect

  • Discover the beauty, history, and marine life of Zanzibar on this exciting shared full-day boat tour from Stone Town. Visit the historic Prison Island and relax on the beautiful Nakupenda Sandbank while enjoying the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean.

    Your adventure begins in Stone Town, where you will meet your guide and board a shared traditional boat with other travellers. Sail across the turquoise waters towards Prison Island, also known as Changuu Island.

    At Prison Island, explore the island and learn about its fascinating history. The island was originally used as a quarantine station and later became an important part of Zanzibar's history. You will also have the opportunity to see and learn about the famous Aldabra giant tortoises, some of which are more than 100 years old.

    After exploring Prison Island, continue by boat to Nakupenda Sandbank, one of Zanzibar's most beautiful natural attractions. Depending on the tides and weather conditions, the sandbank offers a stunning setting surrounded by clear turquoise water and white sand.

    Take time to relax, swim, sunbathe, walk along the sandbank, and take beautiful photos of the surrounding ocean. You can also enjoy snorkelling and discover some of the colourful marine life in the shallow waters.

    During your time at Nakupenda Sandbank, enjoy a freshly prepared local lunch featuring seafood and tropical fruits. You may taste fresh fish, octopus, prawns, and other local specialities, accompanied by seasonal tropical fruits.

    After lunch and free time at the sandbank, board the shared boat and sail back towards Stone Town, enjoying beautiful views of the Zanzibar coastline along the way.

    This shared tour is ideal for travellers who want to experience Zanzibar's history, wildlife, beaches, and ocean in one memorable day while sharing the boat and experience with other travellers.
