Day Trip to Mnemba Island

Safari summary

This full-day tour to Mnemba Atoll offers one of the best snorkeling experiences in Zanzibar, perfect for ocean lovers, couples, families, and underwater photographers. Located just off the northeast coast near Matemwe, Mnemba Island is surrounded by a protected marine reserve known for its vibrant coral reefs, tropical fish, sea turtles, and dolphins.
Though landing on Mnemba Island itself is not allowed (it’s privately owned), the surrounding waters are open for snorkeling and swimming. The clear, shallow sea makes it ideal even for beginners. You’ll explore colorful reefs, enjoy a relaxing boat ride, and have time to swim or sunbathe in the Indian Ocean.
With warm turquoise waters, fresh tropical fruits on board, and excellent chances to spot marine life, this tour is one of Zanzibar’s top ocean adventures.
