Nungwi Aquarium Tour

Northern Zanzibar Coastal Experience

Overview

The Nungwi Aquarium Tour introduces visitors to the marine life and traditional fishing culture of northern Zanzibar. Nungwi is known for its beautiful beaches, dhow-building heritage and natural tidal pools where sea turtles are cared for before release.

The visit offers a close look at local conservation efforts and provides time to explore the lively village atmosphere. Depending on the selected aquarium and current rules, guests may observe rescued turtles from viewing platforms or enter designated swimming areas under supervision.

The excursion can be combined with free time on Nungwi Beach, a visit to the dhow-building yards or a sunset stop along the north coast.
