In the Indian Ocean off the East African Swahili coast lies the Zanzibar archipelageo. Though its main island is called Unguja, it is generally referred to as simply Zanzibar. There you will find us at the northern tip of Unguja in the fishing village of Nungwi.

BEST DIVING SEASON IN ZANZIBAR
March to May
The best diving season in Zanzibar starts in March, it is the rainy season and lasts until the end of May. The visibility is at its best and you can see more and bigger fish on almost every dive than the rest of the year.
Rainy season at Nungwi Beach | FUN DIVERS ZANZIBAR
While the daytime temperatures drop to a comfortable level, the weather can be unpredictable. You may experience frequent changes from short heavy showers, sunny spells and tropical rainfalls lasting 1 or 2 hours, to whole rainy and beautiful sunny days.
From March to May the strong winds subside and the Indian Ocean around Zanzibar becomes very calm. The calmer seas make excellent visibility for divers. As it rains often the water temperatures in the sea slightly decrease and you can see more fish on the reefs.
Brown marbled grouper | FUN DIVERS ZANZIBAR
With the cooler water temperatures, small fish species such as sardines and pilchards appear at our dive sites. These attract the larger predators such as the barracudas, groupers, kingfish and cobias. March to May is the season when you can encounter bigger fish on almost every dive.
During this time of the year there are fewer tourist on the beaches. Learn more about our amazing offers for you to enjoy the best diving season in Zanzibar with us …
