Kick off your day with the exhilarating Dolphin Tour, where we'll set out to spot these playful creatures in their natural habitat. With a 90% chance of seeing them, you'll have the incredible opportunity to swim alongside these majestic dolphins as they glide through the waves. Next, dive into the vibrant underwater world of Mnemba Reef for an unforgettable snorkeling experience. Encounter an array of fascinating marine life, including Angel Fish, Blue Spotted Rays, Black Snappers, Groupers, Red Tooth Triggers, Flounders, Octopuses, Leaf Fish, Scorpion Fish, Stone Fish, Frog Fish, Trevallies, and more. Join us for a day filled with wonder and excitement as you explore the stunning beauty of Zanzibar's marine life! Note: Our guides do the best to ensure sighting the Dolphins, but as nature is free to roam, viewings aren't guaranteed. Also, pick-up is early to ensure you see the dolphins as they tend to appear before 8am. Driver will contact 48 hours in advance for exact time.
Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of the Baraka Natural Aquarium, a sanctuary for endangered sea turtles and a variety of vibrant fish. This natural formation, carved from coral bedrock by the relentless crashing of millions of waves, offers a unique glimpse into the marine ecosystem. Watch as the water levels rise and fall with the tides, creating a dynamic environment for its inhabitants. Close to the aquarium, witness the artistry of local boat-making, where skilled craftsmen construct traditional shows. See firsthand how fishnets and sails are meticulously repaired, preserving age-old techniques and local heritage.
Escape to the secluded beaches of Kendwa for an unforgettable holiday. Bask in the serenity of Kendwa Beach, where pristine white sand and gentle waves create a true beach paradise. Explore the quiet, crystal-clear waters and the picturesque hills that frame the shoreline. As your day winds down, be captivated by the breathtaking sunset that paints the sky with brilliant hues. Discover the ultimate retreat and make memories that will last a lifetime.

This was the most amazing tour! First off, we went swimming with dolphins. I had 7 dolphins swimming right in front of me at the same time! We were lucky to find the dolphins. Then we went snorkeling in the most beautiful water. Rashid let us stay as long as we wanted. He was very accommodating. Then we had the most delicious lunch in a beautiful beach setting. We then went to Kendwa Beach and finished up swimming with turtles at the turtle sanctuary. It was such an amazing day and we had the best time!
Members island was one of the highlights of ur Zanzibar trip.The crystal-clear turquoise water,colorful coral reefs, and variety of tropical fish made the snorkeling experience unforgettable. The boat trip was enjoyable, and the guides were friendly professional. I highly recommended Mnemba Island to anyone looking for an incredible marine adventure in Zanzibar
Hello, I am Ansogie from Belgium 🇧🇪 My husband, my two children, and I visited Mnemba Kendwa and the aquarium with Azur. Everything went very well, and we are very happy. It is a local business, but the service, the meal, everything was perfect. Thank you very much, Azur
We traveled with Azur Zanzibar Tours as a family of 3 and they made everything perfect. At Mnemba Island we got to swim with dolphins and we were surrounded by fish of every color - it felt like swimming inside a painting. Our baby was safe with the guides and life jackets, and had so much fun watching the fish. After swimming we had a delicious lunch with fresh seafood, right on land. Simple, tasty, and baby-friendly. Next stop was Baraka Aquarium. The highlight was swimming with sea turtles and feeding them - our little one couldn’t stop smiling. The staff were super patient and made sure it was safe and fun for kids. We finished the day walking on Kendwa Beach. Soft white sand and calm shallow water meant our baby could play safely while we relaxed. If you want a stress-free, family-friendly day with real memories, book Azur Zanzibar Tours. They think of every detail for parents with kids. Highly recommended!”
Thank you for trusting us with your family’s time in Zanzibar and for recommending us so highly. We would be delighted to welcome you again for more unforgettable memories in the future.
