Overview

Sea turtles live in the tropical and subtropical ocean waters around Zanzibar, and this short trip takes you to a natural aquarium at Kizimkazi where you can swim with these marine animals.

Your driver brings you to the site, where you can enjoy being in the water with the turtles and take photos and videos. The animals are wild — interactions follow the site's guidance, sightings and swimming are subject to conditions, and we ask every guest to treat the turtles with care.
