Captain Joe Safaris

1 Days Wasini Dhow 

You will be picked from your hotel in the morning form north coast 6.45am and from south coast 7.15am and drive to Bodo village Funzi Island through Ramisi. On arrival at Bodo you will be prepared for snorkeling and swimming at the sandbar. A canoe (boat) ride across the Ramisi River is another fascinating game. Crocodiles will be seen swimming or lazing over the riverbanks.
This idyllic get-away-from-it-all desert island camp is a tropical paradise set in the azure waters of the famed Indian Ocean and the forest of mangrove trees. To get there you travel from Bodo Village on the South Coast by motorised dhow to the island – and you may have to wade the last few meters if the tide is low!!
Then a short walk along a sandy woodland path brings you to the beautiful campsite. The tiny local donkeys may pay you a visit; peacocks may strut through the camp, and chattering monkeys may greet you from overhead as they swing through the indigenous torest canopy.
explore the meandering estuary of the Ramisi River by flat bottomed motorised dinghy – a secret world of shafts of sunlight and shadow,
Funzi is a home for the sleeping crocs and a myriad birds, including a huge colony of kingfishers; perhaps meet dolphins in Funzi Bay; anchor off the sandbar for a swim, and look for turtles along the long stretches of beach or explore the nearby village. The Swahili seafood lunch will be served at the restaurant. Lunch will include Rice, fish cooked in a coconut milk, crabs and lobster. After Lunch you will have a guided walk to the nearby village. The shirazi and digo people inhabit Funzi and Bodo village. Then drive back to your hotel, arriving in the evening
