Diving and Snorkelling in Zanzibar

Holidays in Zanzibar offer some of the best diving conditions in the Indian Ocean, and whether you're an experienced diver or a curious and inexperienced snorkeller, the marine life is well worth the plunge.

If you're coming to Zanzibar for diving there are a few things worth considering:

• Dive sites are generally reached by boat.
• Although diving is possible all year round, most divers avoid the rainy season of March to May.
• The western sides of the islands are more sheltered than the eastern sides, which are more susceptible to swell.
• From June to October the diving is better on the northern coasts of Pemba and Zanzibar.
• September through December offers the calmest waters.
• November through March is when the southern coasts offer better diving.
