Diving
We have a well equipped PADI dive centre 'Unguja Divers' within the lodge, Our resident dive instructor Nick and his staff can take you out for some beautiful diving, snorkeling or trips in the Menai Bay Conservation Area. We offer all the PADI courses and have all the equipment you will need whatever your level. If you would like to know more about what we offer you can download the special ‘Unguja Divers brochure’ or contact ungujadivers@ungujalodge.com
We are fortunate to be the only location on Zanzibar with a ‘house reef’ within swimming distance , right in front of the lodge. We keep the boats outside the reef at low tide. This means that all the water activities are unrestricted by the tide.
Only a short boat ride away there are several unspoiled coral gardens, easy to dive, and offering an abundance of sea life. For the more adventurous divers there are several spectacular deeper and wall sites where the bigger fish thrive.
Diving at Unguja Lodge is very personal and efficient. The dive center is located adjacent to the pool and the access to the beach. Diving is always in very small groups. We use either a spacious traditional dhow or a smaller fiber boat depending on the dive sites and weather conditions.
Great diving is what brought us here... Whatever kind of diving you are looking for we have it. We have a selection of pristine dive sites, many of which only we visit... we found them ourselves!
