This trip offers unique opportunities to learn more about how traditional dhow boats are built and all about the natural preservation of turtles. See beautiful beaches and get a chance to swim with turtles.
The most popular beaches of Zanzibar are in Nungwi. This is mostly because the tides do not have such a huge impact on the beach. But, did you know that Nungwi is also the capital of local dhow manufacturing? Find out all about how these impressive sailing vessels are made and get the chance to see local craftsmen in action.
Later, enjoy lunch including one complimentary drink at a local restaurant. After that, experience a real turtle sanctuary. Here, turtles are treated and healed of any illnesses before being released to the ocean. Get the chance to swim with these incredible animals and feed them.
You will see turtles of different species, ages, and sizes. It is important to know that the proceeds from the entrance fees at the shelter also fund a project for local children, which raises awareness of the importance of preserving turtles, as this is the only way they will be able to ensure their long-term conservation.
