Day 01
Kiwengwa Beach, Pongwe Beach and Forest Reserve Exploration
- Meet your guide and drive to Kiwengwa Beach, the most beautiful part of Zanzibar Island. Experience the soft white sand and transparent blue waters. With its steady winds and beautiful vast lagoon, Kiwengwa is also a terrific place to learn kitesurfing.
- Visit Pongwe Beach next to relax and enjoy the ocean waves.
- Tour the Kiwengwa/Pongwe Forest Reserve, an important location for seeing Red Colobus monkeys, Blue monkeys, duikers, and Suni antelopes. There are also many butterflies, birds, and more than 100 different plant species. You can also visit a spice plantation near the reserve.
- Check out the deep coral caves within the reserve, where you can see stalactites and stalagmites. It is believed that locals visit the caves to worship their ancestors, bringing gifts to the "holy stones." The naturally formed holes in the cave ceiling let sunlight in, creating an energizing atmosphere. Another thing to see is the roots that resemble electric wires, connecting the top of the cave to its bottom.
Get dropped off at your accommodation to end the tour.
