This full day excursion is suitable for anyone, from those who wish to completely relax to those who want adventure and excitement. We board at the hotel and then set sail towards Prison Island, to see the remains of the prison built to condemn Zanzibari citizens to isolation and watch the giant tortoises shuffle through the trees, with the patience that old age brings. From there we will do some snorkeling with a guide and teacher to see the stunning array of coloured corals and tropical fish of the islands. Then hop back onboard and let us sail you away to a sand bank where brilliant birdlife exists. For the more active discover more underwater life around the sandbank and listen to stories from our crew about sailing the seven seas. We will slowly sail back to Stone Town after soaking up the sun and return back to the Serena Inn by 03:30pm, relaxed and fall more in love with Zanzibar than you thought imaginable!

A great sailing and snorkeling excursions for the time limited traveler or the early riser. The silence of the morning sea makes the perfect accompaniment to a beautiful sunrise cruise. Sail to the sand banks or Prison island to do early morning snorkeling in the breath taking ocean. We mention about snorkeling for an hour and you’ll make your way back just before the Zanzibar heat sets in for the delightful breakfast at Serena Inn.

"Eleanor kindly arranged a lift for us from Stone Town in her supply truck - whizzing through Zanzibar on a truck full of coconuts was an exhilarating start to a wonderful day! The staff were professional and kind, giving us a snorkelling lesson in a beautiful mangrove lagoon before taking us out to ..."the open ocean. Snorkelling over those exquisite coral reefs, seeing huge and colourful fish, ranks as one of the best experiences of my life. One of my friends was not a confident swimmer, and the guide Khamisi equipped him with a lifejacket to enable him to enjoy snorkelling along with the rest of us. Another friend became seasick on the dhow, and was looked after very well by the staff - we're very grateful. Later we landed on an idyllic sandbank, for a seafood barbecue which surpassed all expectations. Finally, after coffee and Amarula, the dhow sail was unfurled and the wind took us back to the mainland - fulfilling a dream of one member of our group, who had longed to travel in a real ...

"Signed up for an Open Water course with One Ocean in Stone Town and basically spent my entire 2 weeks in Zanzibar diving! Was very impressed with the place- always felt safe and taken care of, but more importantly had a blast. The staff are all very friendly, and my instructor, Faridu, was incredibl..."e. After finishing my course in Stone Town, ended up going to dive in Matembwe for a couple days then coming back to Stone Town for another day! If you're reading this and thinking about diving - do it! You'll love it.
