Day Trip to Funzi Island
Description
At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Diani and begin our day trip to Funzi Island. We'll make our way towards Bodo, passing the picturesque village of Shirazi. During this 40-minute journey, you'll be able to admire the green sugar cane fields that grow here as well as the Ramisi Sugar Factory.
Upon arrival, we'll board a motorized canoe which will take us on an incredible adventure down the Ramisi River, home to many birds. At low tide, we'll enjoy a relaxing moment on the impressive sand banks of Funzi, the perfect place to relax, swim in crystal–clear waters, and sunbathe.
Here, we will have a meal of seafood, grilled fish, and rice with coconut. After lunch, you'll enjoy some free time on the beach to relax and enjoy your surroundings.
When we meet back up, we'll explore the village in Funzi, learning about the local community's history and culture. You'll have the chance to interact with the locals and get to know their traditional practices and lifestyle.
Finally, after a four-hour tour, we'll return to your hotel in Diani.
