The Reef Experience Zanzibar
Beneath the surface of the Indian Ocean
About
Discover the most colourful and untouched marine life of the Zanzibar archipelago aboard semi submarines and speedboats. From the boarding platform at Forodhani in Stone Town, guests are carried into a vivid underwater world of coral reefs, vibrant sea life and some of the clearest water in the Indian Ocean, with a cruise guide and divers on board and professional photographs sent within two days.
Choose the two hour Classic Reef cruise, the three hour Reef & Beach cruise with time ashore on a sandbank, or the gentle one hour Sunset cruise as the day closes. Private speed boat charters are available by the boat for groups who want the coast to themselves. Every vessel and operation is fully insured, and cancellation is free up to 48 hours before departure.
