Did you know that Nakupenda means "I love you"? Find out how this romantic beach got its name and see giant tortoises on Prison Island.

Changuu Island and Nakupenda Beach Trip

We'll pick you up from your Zanzibar hotel at the designated time and head towards the city harbour, where a boat will be waiting for us. We'll sail the Indian Ocean for about 20 minutes until we reach Changuu Island, also known as Prison Island.

At Changuu Island, we will visit the giant tortoises, imported from Seychelles in the late 19th century. Following this, we'll go snorkelling to explore the marine life in the area. The island was historically a coral mine.

Afterward, we'll sail to Nakupenda Beach, where you can relax in the sun or swim in the turquoise waters. A lunch of fish and tropical fruits will be provided. We will return to your hotel after a total of 8 hours.
