## On the Water
### Activities
We are boat lovers and have several boats available for day trips. One is a 35 year-old wooden 60-foot Turkish sailing boat with four sails. Another is a 30-year old smaller catamaran which is all wood and has no bolts  it's a very specific design and sails beautifully. We also have a faster boat when speed is of the essence.

## Chumbe Island
### Activities
Friends of OurParadise, Chumbe Island is one of the world's most successful ecotourism projects. In 1994 the reef surrounding Chumbe island was created as Tanzania's first Marine National Park. The island itself, covered with lush mangrove forest, is a designated forest reserve. Trips to Chumbe leave from our property each day.

## Botanical Gardens
### Activities
Our gardens are part of a mature and rainforest (jungle) atmosphere which is only found in a few other places in Zanzibar and Pemba. Home to hundreds of species of plants and trees, many endemic to Zanzibar, it's a beautiful place to take a stroll or take it easy. We're working on educational signage and guided tours, coming this year.
