Prison Island Experience Half Day Tour With Transfer - Zanzibar
Description
A visit to Stone Town will bring you to the captivating Prison Island, a tranquil escape brimming with history and natural beauty. The island is home to Aldabra tortoises, which were brought from Seychelles in 1919 and now roam freely across its landscape. Just a short 30-minute boat ride from Stone Town, it’s a fantastic spot for snorkeling in its crystal-clear waters and relaxing on its serene beaches.
The island has a rich historical background. Initially serving as a quarantine station, it was later chosen by the British to house a prison for Stone Town in the 1890s, although the prison was never used. Today, visitors can explore the remnants of the prison as well as enjoy the island’s lush surroundings, making it a must-visit destination for both history enthusiasts and nature lovers.
