Overview
Pungume Island is one of Zanzibar’s most magical and untouched gems, located off the south-west coast of the island. Known for its crystal-clear turquoise waters, white sandy beaches, and vibrant coral reefs, Pungume offers the perfect escape for travelers seeking both relaxation and adventure.
What makes Pungume Island truly special is its secluded sandbank, which appears and disappears with the tides. Here, guests can enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime experience — walking on soft white sand surrounded by nothing but the Indian Ocean. It’s an idyllic spot for sunbathing, photography, or simply enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of nature.
Beneath the waves, Pungume is a paradise for snorkelers and divers. The island’s coral gardens are home to colorful tropical fish, dolphins, and other marine life. Whether you are an experienced diver or a beginner, the underwater beauty of Pungume will leave you speechless.
A trip to Pungume Island is not only about adventure — it’s also about authentic Zanzibar hospitality. Most tours include a traditional dhow cruise, where you can relax under the sails, enjoy fresh tropical fruits, and later indulge in a delicious seafood barbecue right on the sandbank.
For couples, Pungume Island is the ultimate romantic getaway, offering unmatched privacy and breathtaking sunset views. For families and groups, it’s a playground of fun, swimming, snorkeling, and exploring.
