Zanzibar Dolphin Tour

🐬 Dolphin Watching Experience 

Zanzibar Dolphin Tour: Depart your hotel at 9:00 AM and head to Kizimkazi, a small fishing village in southern Zanzibar. It’s famous for its dolphin population, especially bottle-nosed and humpback dolphins. Board a boat early while the ocean is cool and calm—ideal conditions to spot these shy creatures before they dive deeper as the sun heats up. With a bit of luck, you may swim alongside a pod and hear their unique underwater sounds. The experience is both thrilling and peaceful, offering a rare glimpse into the natural behavior of dolphins in the protected waters of the Menai Bay Conservation Area.
