What you can expect

  • Experience a unique marine adventure at Baraka Aquarium in Nungwi, Zanzibar, where you can get up close and even swim with friendly sea turtles in a natural lagoon. This experience offers a perfect combination of wildlife interaction, education, and relaxation in one of Zanzibar’s most popular coastal destinations.

    Your journey begins with a convenient pickup from your hotel, followed by a scenic drive to Nungwi on the northern coast of Zanzibar. Upon arrival at Baraka Aquarium, you will be welcomed by local guides who will introduce you to the conservation efforts being made to protect and care for sea turtles in the area.

    At the aquarium, you will have the opportunity to observe sea turtles of different sizes in a natural seawater lagoon. The experience allows you to safely enter the water and swim alongside these gentle creatures under the supervision of trained staff. You can feed the turtles, interact with them, and learn about their life cycle, behaviour, and the importance of marine conservation in Zanzibar.

    This is not just a recreational activity, but also an educational experience that highlights the importance of protecting marine life. The guides will explain how injured or rescued turtles are cared for before being released back into the ocean.

    After your turtle experience, you can relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Nungwi, known for its white sandy beaches and clear turquoise waters. The area is also great for photography and offers a peaceful atmosphere to unwind.

    Throughout the tour, your professional guide will ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience while sharing insights about Zanzibar’s marine ecosystem and local culture.
