Mnemba reef snorkelling

The best snorkelling on the island, off Mnemba atoll. Dolphins are common on the way out and genuinely wild.

The reef around Mnemba atoll is the healthiest coral left in Zanzibar and it is a conservation area, so the fish are dense and unbothered. You cannot land on the island itself, which is private, but the water around it is the reason people come back. Dolphins on the way out are common and genuinely wild, unlike the herded boat chase sold at Kizimkazi.
