Safari Blue

Zanzibar, Africa

Safari Blue offers a magical day at sea off the coast of Zanzibar, combining crystal-clear snorkeling, delicious seafood, beautiful scenery, and warm Swahili hospitality. You’ll travel aboard traditional dhows (boat trips), explore vibrant underwater life with guided snorkeling, enjoy freshly prepared meals and drinks, and relax in idyllic spots such as Kwale Island. More exclusive options (like private dhow charters or the “Bubble Boat”) let you customise the experience for extra comfort, privacy or romance — making Safari Blue a bucket-list sea adventure.

Available Tours

Safari Blue’s cuisine centres around the Kwale Island Feast, a generous buffet-style spread designed to showcase the best seafood and local flavour Zanzibar has to offer. Guests can expect freshly caught fish, slipper lobster, jumbo prawns, chicken, calamari, and Swahili-inspired vegetarian dishes. For dessert, there’s a tropical fruit tasting featuring locally grown fruits sourced from markets and trees alike. Everything is all you can eat (and drink), and the menu varies daily depending on the catch of the day.

Available Options

Kwale Island is home to Safari Blue’s Chakula Chema Restaurant and the vibrant Sand Bar, offering a relaxed island dining and drinking experience. Guests enjoy shaded seating under spacious stretch tents, a delicious buffet lunch, and all-day refreshments, including fresh juices, soft drinks, and cold beers. The Sand Bar, crafted from upcycled boats and run by expert barman Salum, serves quality wines, cocktails, and more — and is open to all visitors of Kwale Island, making it a lively and eco-friendly spot to unwind by the beach.
