Excursion in Zanzibar: Prison Island, Stone Town, the disappearing Nakupenda island. An overview of the Excursion in this video with all the details and video from the 4K drone. I will show you all the stages of the excursion and almost all the locations that you will see during this busy day. Let's start with the fact that you will be picked up from the hotel at the appointed time and brought to the pier of Stone Town. Next, boarding a large, very colorful fishing boat (by the way, when the group is smaller, a small boat is provided), then a 30-minute journey across the ocean to Prison Island. On this island, which is called the island of the prison, there is now a large reserve with the Aldabra species of Seychelles. According to history, in 1918 the British Governor of the Seychelles donated 4 individuals of turtles to preserve the species, as it was endangered. Then they quickly bred up to 200 individuals in 40 years. But then local residents began to steal them. Therefore, this place was made the World Reserve for the Conservation of the Aldabra species. Until now, new individuals continue to be brought here and grown in a closed environment. The excursion will be very pleasant for both adults and children, as you will have the opportunity of direct contact with the turtles. You can feed them, pet them, and the kids can even sit! Attention!!! Adults MUST NOT sit on turtles! you can damage the slopes with it. On the island of Prison, there is also a Hotel with a swimming pool and detached villas. And the central area with a swimming pool, only this area is located at the entrance. and all excursions that come to see turtles will take place around the pool. You can go to the bar located in the prison building and order food if you are hungry. Then you get on a boat and sail towards Stone Town but stop at the disappearing island of Nakupenda (which is translated from Swahili: "I love you"). It is a sand spit island with white coral sand. It is called the disappearing island because at high tide the island is completely submerged under water. On the island, you can take beautiful photos on the white beaches, dive and see the coral reef. By the way, you can find snorkeling equipment right on your boat, but I recommend taking your own mask and snorkel for hygiene. You can take them as well. A delicious seafood barbecue dinner awaits you. Alcohol is not included in the price. The next stop is Stone Town, returning to the port you will walk along the streets of a Muslim city with sightseeing and museums, shops and markets. Jewelry stores and supermarkets. Everything you need you can find here. That's all, you can go back to the hotel to continue your vacation!
