Regularly voted one of the best snorkelling and dive sites off the African coast, Mnemba Reef is home to a startling diversity of tropical fish and a resident pod of bottlenose dolphins. Sail out to the reef on a dhow, accompanied by our watersports staff, who will guide you through this underwater world. A private snorkelling excursion can be arranged. Beginner divers can complete their PADI course at Matemwe; more advanced divers can explore the Mnemba Atoll. A full range of diving courses is available through Scubafish (scubafishzanzibar.com).
