Private really does mean private.

No joining a boat full of strangers. No fixed group itinerary. No rushing because somebody else is ready to leave.

It is your boat, your crew and your day on the water.

Want to spend longer snorkeling? Stay. Find a quiet stretch of water and decide lunch can wait? Also fine. That freedom is one of the best parts of chartering privately.

Some places are worth more than a day trip. Our liveaboard charters take you further, from the lagoons of the Mnemba Atoll to the quiet anchorages around Pemba Island, waking up somewhere new each morning.

Your own captain and chef, a boat that becomes your only itinerary, and nothing to do but decide where to drop anchor next.

Liveaboard Charter: from $2,700 per night (recommended 6 guests, max 8).

There is a sunset cruise, and then there is the sunset dinner cruise: the version where the evening does not end when the sun disappears.

Set sail as the sky turns gold, then stay on board for dinner under the stars while the island lights come up along the shore.

Sunset Dinner Cruise: from $200 per person, minimum group size applies.

A different way to spend an evening in Zanzibar.

Another week, another group of guests stepping off the boat smiling, sun-kissed and already talking about coming back.

August sits right in the middle of humpback whale season off Zanzibar. Between July and September, these giants migrate through the channel between the mainland and the island, and our crews keep a close eye out on every trip.

No sighting is ever guaranteed; that is the nature of the ocean. But August gives you better odds than most months, and a dolphin es**rt along the way is almost part of the itinerary.

A family day on the water solves one of the biggest challenges of any beach holiday: keeping everyone entertained at the same time.

Snorkelling for the kids, a proper lunch for everyone and enough deck space that nobody has to share a sunbed.

→ Half-Day Charter to Tumbatu Island: from $1,500 for up to 10 guests
→ Full-Day Charter to Mnemba Island: from $2,000 for up to 10 guests

Both include a skipper, crew, snorkelling equipment and food on board, so the only planning left is choosing a date.

Plan your private family charter.

2026 is already past its halfway mark, and Zanzibar has not slowed down for a second. Peak season is still in full swing, the water is calm, and there are more good boat days ahead than behind.

Whether it is your first time on a yacht or your fifth trip back to Zanzibar, this is the month to say yes to the boat day.
