What a fabulous trip we had today! Alibaba was really knowledgeable, helpful and professional. He picked us up from our hotel at 6am (an early start to beat the other boats!) and quickly got us to the boat where we met the Captain and Deckhand. They were also excellent. We headed out in choppy waters to the first snorkeling site. The Captain jumped into the water with us to show us around but the visibility was not as good as expected so they suggested we got back in the boat and tried somewhere else. (Nothing is too much trouble for these guys!) A high-speed blast later and we’re on the other side of the island where the water was calmer and visibility much better. We snorkelled around for a while looking at some amazing fish until Ali said he’d heard where the dolphins were playing, so it was back in the boat and a blast over to the dolphin playground, (en-route we had some lovely fresh fruit for breakfast). We quickly found a pod of maybe 20+ dolphins and watched them for ages. In time, a lot more boats arrived to the point where it was getting too crowded. I got the impression we could have stayed as long as we liked, but I think we were all feeling it was getting overcrowded so made the decision to head back. This was an excellent trip and extremely good value. Would highly recommend seeking Alibaba out for a trip whenever you’re in Zanzibar!
