Quad Adventure Through Nungwi Village and Coastal Heritage
Meet your tour guide at the agreed-upon location to begin your quad tour.
Take this great opportunity to get in touch with daily village life and explore the northern part in a sportive way.
Visit the Natural Turtle Aquarium and drive your quad through rural villages.
Explore Portuguese ruins dating back to the sixteenth century, and swim in a tidal, half-fresh and half-salt clear-water cave if you wish.
Try your hand at being a blacksmith in the local style, and adventure through recently discovered stunning coral caves filled with stalagmite and stalactite crystal rocks.
Discover the Mnarani Turtle Conservation Project, a local NGO that provides shelter and protection to Hawksbill Turtles as well as endangered Green Turtles. The aquarium itself is a natural pool carved out from the coral bedrock by the erosion of millions of waves crashing against the shore. The water rises and falls with the tides, providing a natural environment for its inhabitants.
If you have ever wondered how the lovely photogenic dhows, traditional wooden sailing boats, are built, you have come to the right place. Nungwi's dhow builders are famous for their craft, and you can watch them at work not far from the ocean.
See dhows in all phases of their construction and learn about the whole process, from the sourcing of the wood and the joints used to the rituals of launching a new dhow.
End of the tour.
