This part of the trip includes a stopover in the traditional fish market in Nungwi, sightseeing and free time to relax at the white sand beach of the north if you wish. Depending on the catch day you might see Tuna, King Fish, Dorado and a variety of other large fish for sale. Local fishermen (and women) wade out to the edge of the coral reef to catch a number of different small sea creatures including squid, octopus, pufferfish and the occasional ray – their catch will be sold at the fish market throughout the day.

We will stop at the blacksmith and see the traditional way of making the tools for the construction of dhows. At the construction site, we will see the way dhows have been built for centuries and see how skilled craftsmen bend wood to create the dhows. Take advantage of the opportunity to try your hand at this unique craft. While watching the white sails of the Dhows go by, you might wonder how these impressive boats are made. The Nungwi Boat Yard is a riveting (if you’ll pardon the pun) experience where you’ll meet the shipyard owner and learn how the dhows are built; from the sourcing of the wood to the joints used and how they are launched.

We will end your day by exploring Kendwa Rock Beach where you’ll have free time to explore and play. The Kendwa Beach is located in the same-name village in the northwest of Zanzibar, it is popular with travelers from all over the world. This is one of the best resorts in Zanzibar. It is calm, quiet and peaceful. Kendwa is a wide and long beach, so there is enough space for all vacationers and is suitable for both adults and children.
