Prison Island and Nungwi

Last lazy day in Stone Town led to a trip to Prison Island to see the peacocks and giant tortoises as well as snorkeling the local reefs. So difficult to get the motivation to relocate to a new area, too relaxing and comfortable...hakunamatata (an actual Swahili word, not just Disney).

Finally made the move, bunked down in the northern most tip of Zanzibar in Nungwi. Lovely people and somewhat less touristy. White sandy beaches that never get hot to the touch (low iron content?) and the clearest blue ocean.

Took a Dhow boat out to Mnemba Island to snorkel the reef. Great sea life but the sun was too strong. Even with SPF 45 I got sunburned. Trying to avoid the sun now. 2 days travel to Nkhata Bay in Malawi should remedy that.
