Blue Lagoon Snorkelling Adventure in Zanzibar

  • Meet your tour guide at the agreed-upon location in Zanzibar and begin your Blue Lagoon snorkelling adventure.

The best time for snorkelling is at low tide, when underwater visibility is better and conditions are more suitable for swimming. Look out for a wide variety of fish species, including Parrotfish, Lionfish, Marbled Grouper, Bluefin Trevally, Zebrafish, Triggerfish, Goatfish, Scorpionfish, Cornet fish, Yellow Boxfish, Squirrelfish, Surgeonfish, Blue sea chub, Butterflyfish, Stonefish, and Cuttlefish.
