Overview

Embark on Zanzibar’s most enchanting sea adventure with your exclusive Shared Safari Blue experience. This is more than just a boat trip – it’s a journey into the heart of the Indian Ocean, where turquoise waters, hidden sandbanks, and vibrant coral reefs await.

Step aboard a traditional wooden dhow and feel the ocean breeze as we sail across Menai Bay, a protected marine reserve rich with sea life.

You’ll have the chance to snorkel among colorful coral gardens, swim in a natural lagoon, and explore mysterious mangrove forests.
To make the day even more memorable, your crew will prepare a lavish seafood buffet featuring freshly caught lobster, prawns, calamari, tuna, and seasonal fruits. As the dhow glides back with the golden sunset, you’ll understand why Safari Blue is called the highlight of Zanzibar.

Unlike other tours, your Safari Blue focuses on small groups, personal service, and authentic Zanzibari hospitality.
