Extraordinary African Safaris
Visit the Nungwi turtle conservation pond to meet rescued green sea turtles and learn about local marine conservation.
At Mnarani in Nungwi, a natural tidal lagoon has been turned into a conservation aquarium for green sea turtles — rescued, rehabilitated, and in many cases released back to the wild. A visit lets you get close to these gentle giants, feed them seaweed, and learn how the project protects nesting beaches and rescues injured turtles.
It’s a short, low-cost, family-friendly stop, especially good for children, and a genuine contribution to local marine conservation. It pairs naturally with a stay on the north coast.
A guide introduces the project and its turtles.
See rescued green turtles up close in the tidal lagoon.
Feed the turtles seaweed under guidance.
Hear how rescues, releases, and beach protection work.
A genuinely worthwhile little visit — the project rescues and releases turtles, and your entry helps fund it. It's short (an hour or so), so treat it as an add-on to a north-coast beach day rather than a destination in itself. Children love it.
These are the destinations we most often pair with Zanzibar Turtle Sanctuary Visit, based on route flow, season, and how the wider itinerary fits together.
