Built to bolt onto a safari. One night in Stone Town, four in the north where the water is deep enough to swim at any tide, and no long transfers at either end.
Pickup at ZNZ or the Arusha flight, and a hotel in the old town.
A morning walk through the market and the old fort, then an hour north to the coast.
Deep water off the beach, so swimming works at any tide.
A boat out to the atoll reef, back by mid-afternoon.
Free. Sunset dhow available from the beach.
Transfer to ZNZ, an hour and a half from the north.
