Swimming With Turtles in Zanzibar

Do you want to swim with water turtles? On Zanzibar you can do that! This was an amazing experience I’ve ever had in my  life. One day I took a taxi to Baraka Natural Aquarium, which is located about 5 minutes by taxi from my hotel in the area Nungwi on the north side of Zanzibar. Here you can swim with water turtles, which I really wanted! 🙂

When I came here I didn’t know where to go. It doesn’t look like I can swim with some turtles here, but I walked around and finally I found a “desk” where they received me, but keep in mind if you come here and having a look around. It is not so easy to find the desk! It´s behind the house on the righthand side in the picture above.

  1. Alltså. Zanzibar. Vackra jädra ö alltså! Jag är ingen suktare efter paradisstränder och dylikt men jag fastnade verkligen för klimat och attityd här, framförallt i Jambiani. Lugnt, stilla, skönt, varmt, fint och så vidare. Jag håller med dig – kan också åka tillbaka!
