Chumbe Island
Chumbe Island Overview
Chumbe Island is Zanzibar's first marine protected area and a globally recognised model for private conservation. This uninhabited coral island, located southwest of Stone Town, is surrounded by one of the most pristine shallow-water coral reefs in East Africa. The Chumbe Island Coral Park operates with strict limits on daily visitors to protect the fragile ecosystem. A day trip includes a guided snorkelling tour through the protected reef sanctuary, a forest walk to see rare coconut crabs, and a visit to the historic lighthouse.
