About This Tour

The best way to experience the glorious Zanzibar sunset. On a traditional wooden dhow with the wind in your sail as you cruise along watching the setting sun cast gold and amber hues on the North Zanzibar coast.Whether you would like a romantic moment with your partner or just a fun evening with family or friends, we have different boats that can accommodate you. Some relaxed traditional music might be played to set the mood. Slowly, as the sun sets behind the ocean, the sky turns red and the faint sights of the nearby lands reflect on the water. A truly magical moment.

The sunset cruise leaves at 16:30 from our beach at Z hotel Or Kendwa Rocks, and returns around 18:30, just after the sun has set . Crack open the ice box and dig in to the wonderful liquid and edible treats that it holds as the sun dips below the horizon and the boat leisurely sails back.
