On this Nakupenda Island Tour, you will sail away with us to sandbanks around the magnificent island of Ungula, Zanzibar. Get a chance to see, touch feed and take pictures of the Aldabra Giant Tortoise
OVERVIEW
This full day excursion includes something for everyone. From relaxing on the white sands of the Pange Sandbank to snorkeling for tropical fish and devouring a BBQ Seafood Buffet – guests are in for a treat! We board the dhow and set sail towards Prison Island! There, guests will enjoy a guided tour of a prison built for “rebellious slaves,” a visit with giant Aldabra tortoises (a species now considered vulnerable), and snorkeling with a guide to view the stunning array of coral and tropical fish that surround the island.
We then sail to the magnificent Pange Sandbank, a beautiful patch of white sand surrounded by turquoise waters. Guests can relax under the shade of our ample tents or swim in the warm water of the Indian Ocean. All that activity sure builds an appetite! For lunch, guests can savor a delicious Seafood BBQ served with a cool, crisp beer and refreshing, soft beverages. After lunch, snorkel among Clown fish and Moorish Idols or simply take a walk around the sandbank to witness the birdlife. By the time we set sail to town in the late afternoon, guests will have enjoyed one of their favourite days in Zanzibar!
