Turtles Aquarium Tours
The Mnarani Natural Aquarium of Nungwi is a natural conservation, pond that helps reserve sea turtles that hatch on the nearby Mnemba Island atoll, just off the coast of Zanzibar. Over the years, turtles have been hunted around Zanzibar Island for their attractive shells and meat. This aquarium is managed by a non-governmental organization which provides all services and care required by turtles, which includes feeding them, keeping them in a large seawater pool until the turtles are able to return to the sea. The majority of the turtles in Mnarani aquarium are the green turtles while others include Hawksbills sea turtles and Loggerhead sea turtles.
The Nungwi region consists of three unique areas: the village itself, two main sections of the beach and bars and restaurants are located. The eastern coastal zone is quite calm, with no amenities outside its few hotels, which makes it an ideal place for a relaxing holiday. First you visit the beach, which is considered the most beautiful in Zanzibar.
Here you can enjoy a delicious meal in one of the popular Nungwi restaurants overlooking the ocean. Of course, you can also sunbathe and swim in the clear turquoise waters of the ocean. This is followed by a visit to another interesting place - the reserve and the natural aquarium in Nungwi.
Here, the locals take care of sick turtles and help them return to the ocean. A natural aquarium is a natural formation, carved out in a huge coral formation by millions of waves that fell ashore for a very long period of time. The northern tip of Zanzibar offers some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world.
The sky here turns pink and golden when the sun sets over the Indian Ocean. Before sunset, you will board a traditional dhow and enjoy this sight while sipping a soft drink. It will be a great end to an unforgettable excursion.
