About This Tour
Discover Zanzibar’s beauty from the ocean on a private full-day catamaran cruise from Kendwa Beach.
Sail toward Mnemba Atoll, enjoy an open bar, a freshly prepared Swahili-style lunch onboard, and snorkel the coral reef in crystal-clear waters.
Perfect for couples, families, or friends looking for an all-day island escape at sea.
Board your private 35-ft Polynesian-style catamaran directly from the sands of Kendwa Beach and set sail across the Indian Ocean.
This full-day adventure ( 09:00 – 15:30 / 16:00 depending on tides ) takes you toward the legendary Mnemba Atoll Marine Reserve, famous for its colorful coral reefs, tropical fish, and occasional dolphin sightings.
Relax onboard as your friendly crew serves unlimited beer, wine, soft drinks and water from the open bar, while preparing a non-spicy Swahili lunch onboard — featuring vegetable curry, basmati rice, chapati, veggie samosas and fresh tropical fruit.
Drop anchor near the reef for snorkeling or a refreshing swim, soak up the sun on deck, or enjoy island music with a cold drink in hand.
After lunch, sail back toward Kendwa Beach with wide ocean views and a true sense of Zanzibar freedom.
