1 Day Safari to Sunset Dhow Cruise

The sunset cruise leaves at 16:30 from our beach at Kendwa Rocks, and returns around 18:30, just after the sun has set . We first head for Kendwa reef where if you like, you will be treated to a glimpse of Zanzibar’s underwater bounty on a guided snorkelling tour just before the sun sets.

When you have had your fill of snorkelling, get back on the boat, crack open the ice box and dig in to the wonderful liquid and edible treats that it holds as the sun dips below the horizon and the boat leisurely sails back.
