CHUMBE ISLAND CORAL PARK

CHUMBE ISLAND CORAL PARK

1 Day

Chumbe Island Coral Park is a renowned private nature reserve that has received multiple awards. Situated just a few kilometers from the southwest coast of Zanzibar, close to Stone Town, this reserve features a fully protected coral reef sanctuary alongside a forest reserve. It is home to unique wildlife, a visitor and education center, a small eco-lodge, nature trails, and historical sites. All facilities and activities are designed with eco-friendly technology to ensure minimal environmental impact.

THIS IS HOW YOU STAY!

Accommodation on Chumbe Island is truly exceptional in many ways. With only one lodge featuring just 7 bungalows, the space feels remarkably open, even at full capacity. The design of these bungalows is outstanding, offering both privacy and a liberating connection to the outdoors. Each bungalow boasts a sea view, and it takes merely 30 seconds to walk from your hammock to the warm tropical waters. Dining on the island is thoughtfully aligned with the principles of marine ecology. Guests can enjoy a variety of delicious dishes, including African, Zanzibarian, Arabic, and Indian cuisine, all while adhering to a seafood purchasing policy that promotes sustainable harvesting. Chumbe Island perfectly blends luxury with sustainability.

ECOLOGICAL AWARENESS

The guest lodges on the island are built with sustainability in mind, embodying what Robinson Crusoe could only have imagined! These structures have an almost negligible effect on the environment of Chumbe Island. They utilize innovative technologies such as rainwater harvesting, solar energy systems, solar water heaters, composting toilets, and natural grey-water filtration. While you enjoy your stay, you can rest assured that you are helping to preserve the island’s natural beauty.

Keep in mind that Chumbe Island is closed annually from April 1st to June 3rd.
