While you could spend your complete outdoor holiday in Mafia Island sunbathing in the powdery white sands or swimming in its azure waters, do take the time to explore its many fascinating treasures. You could go snorkeling in the waters off Chole Bay where you will discover an enchanting underwater world painted by nature’s many vibrant colors. Look closely into the waving fingers of the coral and you will spot many shy marine denizens peeking through them.

Check out the Kirongo Rocks, Utumbe or shallow garden and Milimani, the reef hills. Chole Bay is the superlative spot for diving excursions and has depths from 5 to 24 meters. Beginners and experienced advanced divers can enjoy personalized Trust Tours diving trips in Mafia under the watchful eyes of an expert divemaster viewing large groupers or tiny invertebrates swimming among the reefs.

Tour Plan

If you would like to experience the awesome thrill of swimming with whale sharks, then you should get onboard the Kitu Kiblu dhow, best seen from October to March. In the months from July to October, you could also chance to watch humpback whales following their annual migratory paths to the warm Erythraean Red Sea.

On shore, should you chance to tour Mafia in the months of June through September, you could delight in watching rare species of hatched turtles such as green and hawksbill emerging from their sandy nests and scrambling to the ocean. If history interests you, visit Juani Island that houses the 13th century Kua settlement. Shirazi merchants from Kilwa had set up base here, but today nature has taken over completely. You can reach the island by a short dhow ride.
