About This Tour
Sail Zanzibar's beautiful northwest coast on board the Pelagic One — a 35-ft Polynesian-style catamaran designed for relaxed, authentic island adventures. Departing directly from Kendwa Beach, this private charter is perfect for couples, families, and small groups who want a true Zanzibar experience on the water — complete with open bar, fresh local cuisine, and friendly crew.
Choose the experience that fits your day:
🌅 Sunset Cruise (3 hours) — End your day in paradise with a 3-hour sunset cruise along Zanzibar's north coast toward Nungwi. Enjoy unlimited beer, wine, and soft drinks from the open bar with chapati & guacamole, veggie samosas, nuts, and tropical fruit. Chill island music sets the mood as the sun melts into the Indian Ocean.
🌊 Half-Day Cruise (4.5 hours) — Sail toward Tumbatu Island for snorkeling at the coral reef in crystal-clear water. Your crew serves a fresh Swahili-style lunch with mishkakis (grilled skewers), chapati, dhal & guacamole, veggie samosas, and tropical fruit. Available morning or afternoon — choose the timing that fits your day.
🏝️ Full Day to Mnemba Atoll (7 hours) — Sail to the legendary Mnemba Atoll Marine Reserve, famous for colorful coral reefs, tropical fish, and occasional dolphin sightings. Snorkel at the reef, then enjoy a non-spicy Swahili lunch — vegetable curry, basmati rice, chapati, veggie samosas, and tropical fruit — served onboard with unlimited drinks from the open bar.
All experiences include a local captain and crew, music onboard, shaded deck, onboard toilet, and free hotel transfers for Kendwa and Nungwi areas.

Customer Reviews
Anna & Pieter K.
Pelagic One has such a cool Polynesian style that made the whole trip feel really special. We saw dolphins on the way to Mnemba, the snorkeling was incredible, and the Swahili lunch was so flavorful — definitely the best curry we had in Zanzibar. The crew was warm and welcoming the whole day. Great value for a private full-day charter.
Williams Family
What a beautiful evening! The catamaran is comfortable, the open bar was generous, and the snacks (especially the samosas!) were a nice touch. Watching the sunset between Kendwa and Nungwi with music playing was pure magic. Perfect for a romantic evening — we'd 100% do it again.
Marco G.
Took our kids out for the morning cruise and they loved every minute. The snorkeling near Tumbatu was beautiful and the mishkakis lunch was a hit with the whole family. The crew was super friendly and made sure everyone was comfortable. Great way to spend a half-day in Zanzibar — highly recommend!
