Set on the north-eastern tip of Zanzibar, Mnemba is a romantic and stunningly beautiful private island resort. Ten Zanzibari bandas form the accommodation: rustic and simple yet luxurious, each boasting its own spacious veranda and private beach sala with sunbeds.

As you would expect from an island surrounded by protected coral reefs, the diving here is fabulous and, as well as many species of tropical fish, guests can expect to see giant turtles and ghost crabs too; while other water-based activities include kayaking, wind-surfing, fly-fishing and swimming.
