What makes it special

Why choose this excursion

Pink flamingos

The Ngomeni salt pans attract large groups of flamingos — a walk on foot to admire them.

A deserted beach

The island is half-deserted: before lunch, relax or take a walk to the local fishermen's village.

A boat crossing

At low tide the stretch is done on foot; at high tide by boat: two experiences depending on the hour.

A fish lunch

Crab, kingfish, prawns, rice in octopus sauce, fruit and tea. Afterwards: sofas and hammocks to relax.
