Dhow cruising has emerged as a popular activity in Zanzibar due to its unique perspective of Stone Town. As you set sail on a traditional dhow boat, you can imagine the feeling of early sailors approaching Zanzibar under the serene sails and gentle breeze.

Once on board, the skilled crew will take the dhow about 1 km away from the shore using an engine. Once out at sea, the engine is turned off, and the crew skillfully sets up the sail. As the dhow sails with the wind, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the tranquility of the ocean while listening to the ripple of water on the sides of the boat.

The bustling noise of Stone Town slowly fades away into the distance, becoming only a distant memory. During the sail, soft drinks, drinking water, and Zanzibari snacks will be provided for your enjoyment. Relax in the comfortable seats of the dhow and bask in the romance of Africa as the sun sets, casting a beautiful orange and red hue over the sky
