several professional water sports centres throughout Zanzibar, with a range of
exciting activities to enjoy and explore Zanzibar's superb marine environment.
The island of ZANZIBAR brings images of idyllic tropical holidays to mind. It
has for many years been a favourite travel destination for those in the know,
but has only recently become known as a superb diving destination. The reefs
are in general shallow with clean and calm water. The coral is mostly
unspoiled and teems with large numbers of tropical marine inhabitants.
