Today is the last day of scuba diving that we have prebooked. Another 2 boat dives either here off Zanzibar or off Pemba Island.
All the stories and photographs will be added in here when I get home - so don't forget to check back!
THAT'S WHAT THE BROCHURE SAID, THIS IS WHAT REALLY HAPPENED:
Today we dived with East Africa Diving Company again. We arrived early and took a long boat ride out to Mnemba Atoll for 2 dives. The water is simply indescribable - clearer and warmer than any pool I've seen and this is the open ocean!
Both dives were spectacular. It was as if we were gliding through a huge tropical aquarium. Absolutely stunning, tonnes of tropical fish, coral and we even saw a turtle.
The trip back was gorgeous too. At one point we saw a school of dolphins and in our determination to go swimming with the dolphins we (nearly all of us!) managed a quick pic before bailing out of the boat and swam for our lives.
Of course the boat went one way and the dolphins the other way and we had to wait to be rescued! It was totally worth a try though! hee hee hee
When we got back, we wondered up and down the beach and finally found a little restaurant that wasn't too expensive and whose pizza's were wonderful.
After nearly 4 days of not eating, my appetite was back and we'd found a lovely place to chill for the rest of the day. If you do go out that way, look for the Nungwi Inn, Restaurant and Bar. Highly recommended and right on the beach with stunning views!! (They also do accommodation right on the beach which is probably worth checking out if you're heading this way)
