What you can expect

  • Discover two of Zanzibar's most memorable southern attractions on this exciting Salaam Cave Turtle Experience & Mtende Beach tour. Combine a unique marine encounter with the beauty of one of Zanzibar's most spectacular hidden beaches.

    Your adventure begins with a journey to Salaam Cave in Kizimkazi, a natural seawater cave where rescued sea turtles are cared for in a peaceful conservation environment. Learn about the importance of protecting these beautiful marine animals while observing them in the clear natural waters of the cave.

    With guidance from your local tour guide, you can enjoy a special opportunity to get close to the turtles, observe their behavior, and capture beautiful photographs. The experience also gives you an insight into local marine conservation and the efforts made to protect sea turtles.

    After your turtle experience, continue to Mtende Beach, one of Zanzibar's most beautiful and less-developed coastal destinations. Enjoy the dramatic coral cliffs, white sandy beach, turquoise Indian Ocean, and spectacular natural scenery.

    Take time to relax on the beach, walk along the coastline, swim when conditions are suitable, and enjoy breathtaking views of the ocean. Mtende Beach is also an excellent place for photography, with its distinctive rock formations and peaceful tropical atmosphere.

    Throughout the experience, your local guide will share interesting information about Zanzibar's coastline, marine life, local communities, and the natural environment.

    This tour is perfect for travelers who want to combine sea turtle conservation, a unique cave experience, swimming, beach relaxation, photography, and Zanzibar's beautiful southern coastline in one unforgettable day.
