Zanzibar Submarine -The Reef & Beach Tour

You are free to stay on the upper or lower deck during the tour. Once you approach the reef, your guide will advise you to move to the lower deck to start exploring the marine life through our large unbreakable windows, accompanied by fish/coral charts and guide’s explanations.
