Mafia Island, situated on the western mainland of Tanzania with the Rufiji River Delta and the expansive Indian Ocean on its sides, boasts an exceptional range of aquatic life comprising both flora and fauna. The horseshoe-shaped bay's tepid and sheltered waters provide an ideal environment for an extensive coral reef, ranging from Tutia in the south to Kifinge (Forbes Bay) in the north, housing an astounding more than 400 fish species. Along the coastline, lush forests of fruit trees, mangroves, baobabs, and palms flourish, providing homes for bushbabies, wild pigs, monkeys, small antelopes, as well as intriguingly small populations of hippos. Additionally, the island attracts diverse tropical birds, completing its remarkable biodiversity.

 

When you choose to escape to Mafia Island with East Africa Safari Guides, a world of adventure awaits you. Discover the wonders of the Mafia Island Marine Park, the very first marine park in Tanzania, which stretches over an impressive area of 317 square miles (822 square kilometers). Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of the island's unspoiled white beaches, where the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean gently caress the shore.

 


Not only is Mafia Island a tropical paradise, but it is also easily accessible from mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar Island. This captivating destination holds a significant place in history, dating back to the 8th century. It has served as a vital stopover for traders voyaging between Kilwa, Zanzibar, Madagascar, and Mozambique, providing a glimpse into its rich cultural heritage.
