Itinerary
After meeting at Zanzibar Airport, travellers will fly to Mafia Island, one of Tanzania’s most unspoiled marine destinations.
Upon arrival, guests will be welcomed by our local team and transferred to the excursion base for a short briefing. The main activity is swimming with whale sharks in their natural habitat, guided by experienced professionals and conducted responsibly.
Following the whale shark encounter, guests may continue with snorkelling in the clear waters of Mafia Island Marine Park, exploring coral reefs and marine life.
A freshly prepared BBQ lunch with snacks and soft drinks is provided at the base before transferring back to the airport for the return flight to Zanzibar.
