Full Day (8.5 Hours)
Hotel pickup, Zanzibar-wide
Tortoises, Turquoise Water & a Sandbank Lunch

This full-day tour pairs two of Stone Town’s best-loved boat excursions: a visit to Prison Island (Changuu) to meet its giant Aldabra tortoises, and an afternoon at the Nakupenda Sandbank, a sliver of pure white sand that appears and disappears with the tide, surrounded by clear turquoise water.

Boat transfers, snorkelling gear and a fresh seafood lunch on the sandbank are all included, along with hotel pickup and drop-off anywhere on the island.

What to Expect

Expect a relaxed, water-based day: a short boat ride out to Prison Island to meet its resident giant tortoises and swim off the island’s small beach, followed by a longer boat trip to the Nakupenda Sandbank for swimming, snorkelling and a freshly grilled seafood lunch served right on the sand.

Because the sandbank only appears at certain tide levels, timings can shift slightly day to day — your guide will confirm the exact schedule the evening before.

  • Prison Island's giant Aldabra tortoises
  • Swimming off Prison Island's beach
  • Nakupenda Sandbank's turquoise water
  • Snorkeling over nearby reef
  • Fresh seafood lunch on the sand
