The Coolest Snorkeling Experience at Mnemba Atoll

Your private guide with a private fiber boat will take you on a half an hour ride from Matemwe beach to Mnemba Island, a jewel sitting in the sea. Its vast coral reef, measuring several kilometres in diameter, listed as a marine reserve, is the most popular snorkeling spot in Zanzibar. And with a reason - its shallow waters, from 2 to 4 metres deep, burst with life. Moorish idols, blue tang, snappers, and clownfish are easy to see in a few feet of water, above a colorful, well-preserved reef.
