Bawe South
★★★★★
(237)
The island Bawe just off the coast of Stone Town, is our go-to reef. Bawe South it’s a long shallow reef stretches the whole side of the island, ideal for snorkellers and beginner divers. Deeper we can find big coral bommies, interchange with sandy patches on which huge barrel sponges grow.
Bawe south is home for Titan trigger fish, Stingrays, king fish and thornback box fish can all be found here but the stars are definitely the green and hawksbill turtles who live here.
