Zanzibar Bliss: Sun, Sea and Sassy Dolphins at Mnemba Island!

During my stay at Riu Jambo on Nungwi Beach, I embarked on a magical boat tour to Mnemba Island with Swahili Dhaw Experience, and it was truly unforgettable! 🐠 ⛵️ The excursion started right from the beach at Riu Jambo, making it so convenient. We set sail on a traditional dhow, gliding Zanzibar’s stunning turquoise waters towards Mnemba Island. Our first stop was an incredible coral reef, perfect for snorkeling. The reef was unlike any I have seen, full of life and color, a truly unique underwater world. #boattour #snorkeling #mnembaisland 🥙 After an exciting snorkelling session, we took a break to enjoy some freshly prepared local food onboard. The meal was a delightful surprise, featuring authentic Zanzibar flavours like spiced rice, fresh seafood and tropical fruits. Eating this delicious food while drifting on the calm ocean felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience! #deliciousfood 🌅 As the day wound down, the journey back was equally magical. We were treated to a breathtaking sunset, painting the sky in vibrant shades of orange, pink and purple as the dhow sailed back toward Nungwi. Watchint the sun slowly dip below the horizon from the boat felt surreal, as if time stood still for a moment. The calmness of the sea, combined with the gentle rocking of the dhow, created the perfect atmosphere for reflection and relaxation.🐬To make this experience even more extraordinary, we were lucky enough to spot dolphins swimming alongside the boat, their playful present adding a touch of wonder to the entire ride! #sunset #dolphins #experiences 🏝️ This day trip was the perfect combination of adventure, culture, and natural beauty. If you are visiting Zanzibar, especially staying around Nungwi, a tour to Mnemba Island is a must-do for an unforgettable experience! Top Tips for Travellers: - Book in advance: Swahili Dhaw Experience is a popular choice, so reserving your spot early is wise, especially during peak travel seasons. -Pack essentials: Bring sunscreen, a hat and a towel. A waterproof phone case is great for capturing underwater moments! - Snorkelling Gear: All equipment is provided by the company. - Stay Hydrated: The sun can be strong, so pack plenty of water to stay refreshed.
