General information Dive Sites Accommodation Gallery

Experience some of East Africa's amazing diving off Zanzibar, with depths ranging from 5 to 35 metres. From walls to reefs, Zanzibar's east coast never fails to leave you hungry for more.

Gentle Coral Slopes: Starting from 8 metres, descending very slowly to 20 metres, you will be amazed by the differently shaped corals surrounded by colourful reef fish. These dives are excellent for macro-pictures and for relaxed long diving. Admire the small marine life living in perfect symbiosis with each other: Moray eels, anemones, Stonefish, Lionfish, sea snails, lobsters and the smallest Angelfish in the world, the African Dwarf, found only in certain places in East Africa.

Wall Diving: Starting from 25 metres, these untouched walls are the perfect environment for 'big encounters' such as Oceanic and Reef Sharks, huge stingrays, Groupers and Barracuda. At this depth, even the reef life is very large e.g. Moray eels, Angelfish and Batfish. Diving along these walls is always a big surprise, since in the open ocean there is a chance of all kinds of encounters. Coming up to the surface, it is not rare to find yourself surrounded by dolphins which live in big groups and hunt all over the coast.

Barrel Sponges: If you want to see turtles, these are some dive spots not to be missed. On the sandy bottom at 23 metres, you can experience a particular dive: Dark sponges filled with coloured reef life on a white sandy bottom. The ideal hiding place for giant eels and the feeding ground for sea turtles. Furthermore, it is the perfect place for Trigger Fish, Puffers and other small fish to hide. The white sandy bottom is home to huge Stingrays, Eaglerays and sometimes Guitar sharks.

Discover the Unexplored: With very experienced divers, exploration dives in search of new dive spots can be organised. The knowledge of being the first human being to have dived a previously undiscovered reef is a truly wonderful and unique feeling.
