Set your alarm for an unforgettable morning: the Kizimkazi Dolphin Tour is a family-friendly trip to Zanzibar’s premier dolphin-spotting location, on the southern coast of the island. Glide across shallow waters where both bottlenose and the more elusive humpback dolphins are frequently seen nursing, feeding, and socializing.
Early departures maximize your chances of spotting these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat, though patience is sometimes rewarded with rare appearances. Beyond its marine marvels, Kizimkazi is also home to a 12th-century mosque—one of East Africa’s oldest—offering a unique blend of wildlife and cultural discovery.
This tour package’s standout feature is its combination of dolphin watching and historical exploration, making it an ideal choice for families and young adventurers eager to experience the best of Zanzibar’s coast.

Africa Snorkeling Tour Reviews
Genuine reviews from travelers on Snorkeling Africa tours
Anonymous | Traveled in October
It was an amazing trip with Abdul to Prison Island. The tortoise was a very big experience.
Monica Brown | Traveled in July
Overall, the trip was just fine. If you are not a fan of those small boats that sway from side to side, do not take this tour. The tour guide was fantastic. The tortoises were amazing (worth a little discomfort on the boat), and the boat driver was great. I've done it and would not do it agin if in Zanzibar.
