Set off on a full-day escape to Nakupenda Island, a stunning sandbank off the coast of Zanzibar where turquoise waters meet powdery white sands. After a convenient hotel pickup, cruise the Indian Ocean aboard a traditional Swahili dhow. Enjoy the journey with ginger tea, tropical juices, homemade bread, and exotic fruits served on board. Arriving at Nakupenda—Swahili for “I love you”—you’ll find a breathtaking sandbank that shifts with the tides. Swim in crystal-clear waters, relax under the sun, or snorkel among vibrant reefs and colorful marine life. Take breaks with fresh local fruits, snacks, and cool drinks, then savor a freshly prepared Swahili buffet lunch. With its mix of natural beauty, authentic cuisine, and peaceful vibes, Nakupenda is the perfect day trip for couples, families, and adventure lovers alike.
