The tour begins from Fumba Village, where guests board a traditional wooden dhow boat and sail across the turquoise waters of Menai Bay. During the journey, visitors stop at a stunning sandbank where they can relax, swim, and take photos in the crystal-clear ocean.
Guests will then enjoy snorkeling in vibrant coral reefs filled with tropical fish and marine life. Later, the tour continues to a hidden natural lagoon surrounded by mangrove forests where visitors can swim in calm and shallow waters.
A delicious Zanzibar seafood lunch is usually served on a small island, including grilled fish, lobster, calamari, rice, tropical fruits, and refreshing drinks.
