As visitors dip beneath the surface they are instantly transported into an underwater wonderland. Colourful fish dart in and out of the coral while sea turtles gracefully glide past oblivious to the human observers. Guided by experienced snorkelling guides tourists can explore the rich biodiversity of the reef and witness the incredible symbiotic relationships between the various species.
As the midday sun casts its warm glow over Mnemba Island it's time to indulge in a sumptuous beachside feast. The island's staff prepares tropical fruits and local .
For the more relaxed and nature-focused visitors guided walks along the beach present the opportunity to discover the island's fascinating ecosystem. With the guidance of knowledgeable guides tourists can learn about the island's flora and fauna spot rare bird species and observe the nesting habits of sea turtles during specific seasons.
