Arrival at Zanzibar Airport, meet and greet by our Company representative, and transferred to the hotel Overnight (Tembo Hotel / Maru Maru Hotel)

Early in the morning, our driver will be at the hotel ready to pick you up at the Airport where you will board a Flight to Mafia Island. Within an hour you will be at Mafia Island.

Upon arrival, you will be transferred to the lodge for check-in before starting your Chole Island Tour.

Chole Island is home to probably East Africa's only fruit bat sanctuary and is a great place to meet locals. It is also the right place to discover more about the slave trade market as well as sunset sailing.

After this short tour, you will head back to the lodge for relaxation, dinner, and your overnight stay.

Overnight at Meremeta Lodge

After breakfast, we depart from the lodge for a trip to see the whale sharks! These beautiful giants are seasonally found just a few hundred meters offshore near Kilindoni Harbour. A short boat ride toward the west brings us to a feeding ground for the sharks and soon fins and dark shapes are apparent.

Up to 24 can be seen at a time; males, females, and juveniles, all beautifully marked with stripes and spots. The larger sharks are estimated at over 8m long, so they are an impressive sight next to the boat and quite stunning under the water.

The boat can move among them quietly and you can swim and snorkel to get a closer, underwater view of these gentle, wonderful animals. The sharks remain in a well-defined area.

Later, you will have lunch at the Sand Bank before heading back to the lodge for relaxation, dinner and overnight.

Today is the last day at Mafia Island, therefore you will spend some time on other activities before flying back to Zanzibar. The activities include fishing (at an extra cost), snorkeling, and visiting the nearest villages and beaches such as Miewe, Mvinje, and Mchangani. Later in the afternoon, you will be transferred to the Mafia Airstrip for your flight back to Zanzibar for Dinner and Overnight
