Tumbatu Island - Near Zanzibar
|
|
|
|
Tumbatu Island lies off the northwest coast of Zanzibar. There are several 14th Century mosque ruins and some 40 stone houses of the Shiraz people, built in the 12th Century. Sightseeing, sports fishing and scuba diving are among some of the water-based recreations that can be organized on Tumbatu Island. The villages guard closely their culture and natural resources, and it is strictly prohibited to visit the island without a permit from the village elders. Therefore, advance notice must be given to AfricanMecca so that the permit can be applied for.
