Sunset Dhow Cruise

The classic Zanzibar sunset, from the deck of a traditional dhow.

Evening

As the day cools, you sail out on a traditional wooden dhow and watch the sun drop into the Indian Ocean. The sails catch the last light, the water turns gold, and the whole island slows down.

It is the romantic evening people picture when they think of Zanzibar, lovely for couples and just as good with friends or family. We arrange the boat and the timing to catch the best of the light.

Highlights

  • Sail a traditional wooden dhow
