WELCOME TO THE MAFIA ISLAND, TANZANIA









This is one of Tanzania’s best areas for diving and you’ll always see something exciting, from rainbow-coloured clownfish to octopus, rays and the odd gigantic grouper or large potato cod.
Sharks and dolphins are found in the deeper waters, and at night turtles crawl onto remote beaches to nest. Between the months of October and March the chances of being able to swim with whale sharks are quite high – this can be arranged from the lodges or Watersports Centers.

 It is the ocean here that is the greater attraction though. Within the bay, the shallow reefs are perfect for snorkelling or learning to dive. Outside the bay’s entrance is guarded by a long coral wall, attracting more experienced divers. There are more than 50 genera of coral here. Some of the very best and exciting excursions include Mafia Deep Sea fishing, Dhow sailing, Yacht safaris, Turtle watching, Scuba dive, Bird watching and Snorkeling. Find more excursions in the left menu.
