Zanzibar Yacht Charter - Island Destinations Sailing in Zanzibar on a Zanzibar Catamaran
60 different island can be combined in a Zanzibar yacht charter
Zanzibar Archipelago
We have no set itinerary on our Z anzibar Catamaran Cruises, as we prefer to tailor make each experience based on the time of year, guests interests and conditions at the time. We are very flexible.
Depending on how much time you have, we focus on the West coast of Zanzibar. You will get to sail and explore the Menai Bay Conservation Area, in the far south of Zanzibar, Stone Town and the numerous islands, just off the coast of Stone Town and then further north to Kendwa, famous for its water sports and nightlife and then onwards to Tumbatu Island, Nungwi and the famous Mnemba Island.
Pemba Island Archipelago
For those with a few more days or a week to spend on charter, we can also include the Pemba Island Archipelago, 6-8 hours sail north of Zanzibar.
Pemba offers a remote private charter experience, where you are unlikely to see any other yachts or tourists!
Pemba Island Archipelago also offers a variety of different islands to explore and though it is similar in size to Zanzibar, it only has five island resorts on the whole islands… so you will have the place virtually to yourself!
Mafia Island Archipelago
We also can combine Zanzibar with Mafia Island Archipelago if guests have 7 to 10 days to charter, as Mafia is a 24-hour sail south of Zanzibar.
Most guests prefer to fly to Mafia to meet the yacht there to explore the Mafia Archipelago, and then fly out again, but if you have the time, you can come aboard a yacht in Zanzibar and cruise south to Mafia Island.
Easily combine a Zanzibar Yacht Charter with a beach resort or East African Safari!

The mere mention of the word Zanzibar evokes a sense of mystery and excitement, of pristine white beaches and colourful markets redolent with the heady aroma of spices that made these islands famous.
Whilst being a popular beach resort destination Zanzibar also offers some wonderful sailing holidays and yacht charters. Beautiful beaches, gin clear water with an average temperature in the high twenties, year round reliable trade winds all tied together by the incredibly warm Swahili culture makes this a must see destination.

Detailed Itinerary
Zanzibar sailing cruise | 7 nights / 8 days.
Day 1: Stone Town to Menai Bay We start with the guests boarding the vessel in Stone Town, a world heritage site recognised as the oldest Arabian city still functioning today. Depending on your arrival time. We may overnight on the yacht anchored off Stone Town beach or we head south to Menai Bay and Fumba Peninsular.
This southern region is famous for its resident dolphins on the southern point at Kisimkazi, where if you are lucky you will be able to swim with dolphins. Because you are living on a yacht we can go to places others can’t and can be with the dolphins long before or after other boats have to depart.
The Menai Bay region also has 10 different islands, islet’s and sand banks we can explore including, Murogo island, Pange Island, Chumbe Island, Ukombe Island, Tete Island, Kwale Island, Pamunda Island, Miwi Island, Niamembe Island, Pungume Island, as well a number of small unnamed islands, sand backs and atolls.
We will spend a couple days hear, exploring, fishing, snorkelling and relaxing with nights spent anchored off totally deserted beaches.
If you go onto google earth and explore the Menai Bay region you will get a good sense of the area.
Day 2 & 3: Menai Bay Conservation Area
Day 4: Mangwapani / Tambatu Island Mangwapani was a favourite hideaway for old time slavers trying to avoid the British anti-slavery fleet.
Today the site boasts two hotels and a pristine beach.
A short walk away is the cave that once housed those poor souls who were unfortunate enough to have been captured as slaves.
Tambatu Island, one of th few islands in the world where Voodoo is still practiced.
Just south of Tambatu is a wonderful sheltered bay that often has a pod of dolphins cavorting around it. It’s also a great place to explore on Kayaks.
Day 5: Kendwa and Ras Nungwi Kendwa is one of the world’s top beaches. Kendwa also hosts the monthly full moon party, and if you like to party then this is one you don’t want to miss.
A short walk from Kendwa is Ras Nungwi, the northern most tip of Zanzibar. Here one can witness traditional dhows being built in a manner that has been unchanged for nearly a thousand years. There is also a turtle sanctuary. Visitors can interact directly with these ancient creatures, as well as coming into close contact with a number of other interesting inhabitants of the island.
There is a good vibe here in the evenings with good beach front restaurants and beach bars with live music, so if you feel like heading a shore and enjoying the night life, you can.
Day 6: Mnemba Island A 2 hour sail away is Mnemba Island Coral Atoll, a spectacular coral atoll and private island situated a couple of miles off the north east point of the main island.
Mnemba offers world class diving and snorkelling and provides a secure anchorage for the night. The island itself is private with a luxury lodge so you can’t go ashore but the yacht can anchor here for the night.
It’s a piece of heaven and with the snorkelling reefs directly under the yacht, so you can literally just flop over the side of the yacht to see the fish.
Day 7: Mnemba Island
We will spend the day at Mnemba Island atoll and depart mid-afternoon to return to Nungwi for your last night. Go ashore have drinks at one or two beach bars, or perhaps dinner at a beach front restaurant, or just relax on board for the last night.
Or we will spend a 2nd night at Mnemba and leave early the next morning.
Day 8: Nungwi - End of Charter
Disembark in the morning at Nungwi Beach.
