Safari Blue is Zanzibar’s most celebrated ocean excursion, offering a full day of sailing, snorkeling, and island exploration in some of the clearest waters around the island. Carefully organized by Future African Safari, this experience combines relaxation, adventure, and natural beauty in one unforgettable journey.
Sailing Through the Menai Bay Conservation Area
The adventure begins from the fishing village of Fumba, where guests board traditional wooden dhows and sail into the protected waters of the Menai Bay Conservation Area. This area is known for its rich marine life, coral reefs, and unspoiled islands.
Sandbanks, Snorkeling & Crystal-Clear Waters
One of the first highlights is stopping at a pristine sandbank surrounded by turquoise water. Guests can relax, swim, or snorkel over coral reefs filled with colorful tropical fish. The calm, shallow waters make this suitable even for beginners.
Island Lunch at Kwale Island
Midday brings a fresh seafood lunch served on Kwale Island, prepared with local flavors. After lunch, there is time to relax under the shade, explore the island, and visit the famous ancient baobab tree.
Mangrove Lagoon & Natural Swimming Pool
The final part of the tour includes swimming in a peaceful mangrove lagoon, often referred to as a natural pool. The warm, shallow water provides a perfect and relaxing end to the day.
