Itinerary
Begin your evening with a comfortable hotel pick-up (time advised based on your location) and transfer to Shirazi Jetty, where a traditional dhow awaits.
Step aboard and sail into the golden hues of the Indian Ocean sunset, welcomed with refreshing fresh coconut water. As the dhow gently glides past mangrove forests and the small islands of Funzi, relax under the open sky, enjoy the cool sea breeze, and soak in a truly magical coastal experience.
Optional Upgrade:
Indulge in a delicious seafood dinner served either on Funzi Island or aboard the dhow—an unforgettable dining experience enhanced by a bonfire and aromatic Arabic coffee.
✨ Perfect For
• Romantic proposals 💍
• Honeymoons & anniversaries ❤️
• Families and friends seeking a unique coastal evening
You’ll return to Shirazi Jetty at around 7:30 PM, followed by a transfer back to your hotel.
