Take part in fun watersports and outdoor activities in Zanzibar ideal for groups and individuals.
Jet Skiing
On this trip you first race along the shoreline about 100 meters out from the beach. Zipping passed all of the stunning hotels that are strung out along the coastline. Then head out to the open waters to pass by the peaceful Tumbatu Island, a place that very few visitors get the chance to see. If time permits you may also get a chance to have a quick snorkel on one of the many reefs that you will pass. Then you take a final straight race to return to Kendwa beach to round of the thrilling trip. This is a great activity to do in a small group of family or friends, satisfy your need for speed with challenging them to a race!
Never ridden a Jet Ski before? Don’t worry because the excellent staff will provide you with safety instructions and tips on how to ride. An instructor will take you out to the pontoon where you will get on the Jet Ski and receive your briefing, the instructor will explain about the pre-marked riding areas, control of the Jet Ski, stopping etc. Then all that is left is to strap on your life jacket and hit the water. Hear the wind whistle in your ears as you race along; pull back the throttle a little more if you want more of a rush. Learn how to turn, go faster and control the Jet Ski in the waves during your rental period; then finish by walking away with a smile on your face.
Kite surfing

On the beautiful island, which is situated in the Indian Ocean, the perfect kite conditions await you.
Jambiani is a small town on the east coast of Zanzibar, just 8 km south of the famous kite spot Paje. In Jambiani it’s a bit more quiet, so you have a lot of space on the water.
The lagoon of Jambiani is about two kilometres away from a reef, so the water in the lagoon is mostly shallow and therefore the ideal spot for beginners as well as freestylers. Is shallow water too boring for you? No problem! In front of the reef a nice wave breaks in at high tide on the reef.
In addition to kiting, Zanzibar also offers a variety of other activities. Discover the variety of flora and fauna on a trip to the Jozani National Park, paddle with a stand-up paddle board through the mangrove forests or explore the offshore reef with a snorkel. But Zanzibar also has a lot to offer culturally. Whether a day trip to Stone town and a visit to the old slave market or to one of the spice farms, no matter where it drives you the island will enchant you. If that’s not enough action for you, then in the evenings you can enjoy Jambiani’s small but nice party scene or plunge into Paje’s nightlife.
Horseback Riding
A professionally managed stable yard with a qualified teaching and riding instructor. We offer a variety of accompanied rides to suit all tastes, beach rides both in the morning and evening including sunset, swimming with horses, cultural rides in Nungwi village. However, all our rides are dependent on the tides, so for example we don’t ride at high tide but this is a great time to swim with the horses. All our beach rides take place on the Northern Nungwi beaches, consistently voted a top 10 beach in the world and our evening rides take in the amazing sunset. Feel free to stop by and see our stables and meet the horses. We are situated opposite the rear entrance to the Z hotel on Rear Village Road. Prophet, our pony, is perfect for younger children and makes a wonderful photo opportunity.
