Dhow Trip Experiences In Zanzibar

Zanzibar is known for its prime deep sea fishing locations where big game fish abound. The channel that lies between Zanzibar and Pemba offers many year-round deep sea fishing opportunities. While on a beach vacation to Zanzibar Island, both first timers and experienced fishers can try their hand at snagging the tough fighters that hunt these waters. You will be going out on a fishing excursion using a custom-built deep-sea boat.

Must See Zanzibar Dhow Tour Attractions

Discover Zanzibar fishing experiences at a small authentic fishing village on the south east coast of Zanzibar and far away from the mass-tourism and big resorts in the north. You also get the chance to experience the local life on the island.

Spectacular Sunset Views

Watch the sun dip below the horizon as the sky lights up in vibrant hues of orange, pink, and purple, offering one of the most stunning sunsets in the world.

Experience a traditional dhow sailboat, a wooden sailing vessel used by local fishermen for centuries, offering a unique and authentic way to enjoy the sunset.

Enjoy 360-degree views of the Indian Ocean, with the gentle waves and the refreshing sea breeze enhancing the tranquil ambiance of the cruise.

During the cruise, you may be lucky enough to spot playful dolphins leaping out of the water, adding a touch of magic to your sunset experience.

Relax with light snacks and refreshing drinks as you sail, enjoying the perfect combination of good company, beautiful scenery, and relaxing atmosphere.
