Considering booking a Safari Blue tour? PLEASE do not use either Getyourguide or Viator/Tripadvisor to make your booking! They have a host of fake Safari Blue tours using our name and even photos of our boats, crew and guests! BUT they are not the real deal. This e mail was received yesterday from an unsuspecting tourist and is unfortunately typical of those who don’t follow our advice. Use our website - it’s user friendly and safe. Be smart Be safe!

The lagoon hidden in Kwale and surrounded by the mangrove forest is simply one of the best spots we visit on a day out. Quite unique and always stunning with a backdrop of fossilized corals millions of years old.

Watch this space as we soon unveil our newest dhow Jazba! She is very nearly ready to be launched and as her name means it will be with passion, gusto and emotion !! Our second dhow we had back in 1996 was called Jazba - named by the boat builders in Nungwi to reflect the energy and passion I had back then… I gave Jazba to a dear friend who loved fishing and sadly the original Jazba and my friend are no more…😢 … However as we always find a positive from a situation having another Jazba in the fleet made sense to me anyway! Wait for the big reveal !
