Description

This half-day trip to Prison Island and Nakupenda Island is a thrilling adventure that takes you from the shores of Stone Town to the beautiful beach of Prison Island. The prison, now owned by a hotel, was built in 1893 to house violent prisoners and sick people. The island is home to a large colony of relax under the warm sun before returning to Stone Town imported from the Seychelles in the late 19th century, with an average weight of 200 kg and many over 150 years old. The island is also home to a colony of beautiful peacocks. During the trip, you can enjoy marine life as you snorkel around the coral fringes of Prison Island or relax under the warm sun before returning to Stone Town.

The scenery of Nakupenda Island is similar to the Caribbean landscapes but much more exotic and natural.
