With its clear and warm Indian Ocean waters, the diving in Zanzibar is some of the best in both Africa and the Indian Ocean. There really is something for everyone, whether you are trying diving for the first time or are a seasoned veteran: with coral-gardens, wrecks, underwater Mountains and long plunging walls. With visibility often reaching 20+ meters, you are sure to see a true and vast variety of underwater life, with some highlights including turtles, seahorses, reef sharks, cuttlefish and many different varieties of shrimp. Our favourite operator for diving is the Rising Sun Dive Centre located at the Breezes Beach Club Hotel: the staff are incredibly friendly, the equipment superb and the range of dive sites is extensive and adaptable to suit all tastes.
