Nungwi
is the one of the most popular places for diving on
the island of Zanzibar. Although there are only 3
major reefs, most dive shops arrange diving out to
Mnemba if you get tired of the local reefs.

| Due
to the strong currents this is only for experienced
divers. In our opinion this is the best reef off the
island of Zanzibar. What makes it so attractive is the
array of reef and pelagic fauna which includes
Guitarfish, Tuna, Moray Eels, Barracuda, Dolphins, and
White Tip Reef Sharks. There is a huge variety of
coral with clusters of Honeycomb and Pillar Coral. |

The reef
is ideal for beginner divers and has a large variety
of reef fish amongst some very well preserved coral.
Large schools of Unicorn and Surgeonfish can be seen
and the occasional Barracuda and Reef Shark. |

This reef is also ideal
for the less experienced diver. The large coral rock
formation has some very impressive Brain and Plate
Coral. You will see a good variety of reef fish,
Lobster, Wrasse and Barracuda.
