About Zanzibar Yacht Charter
Zanzibar Yacht Charter is the longest-running yacht charter company on the island, proudly operating since 1999. Based in Nungwi on the northern tip, they offer luxury crewed sailing holidays, day charters, overnight island-hopping trips, and world-class sportfishing expeditions across the Zanzibar Archipelago and beyond to Pemba Island and Mafia Island.
Their fleet includes sailing yachts, catamarans, and power yachts suited to everything from romantic sunset sails to multi-day liveaboard diving safaris. Through their dedicated sportfishing division, Fishing Zanzibar Co Ltd — established in 2005 — they run half-day, full-day, and extended deep-sea fishing charters targeting marlin, sailfish, yellowfin tuna, wahoo, dorado, and giant trevally. Multi-day fishing liveaboards to the legendary Latham Island are their flagship offering for serious anglers.
With over two decades on the water, the team's knowledge of East African sailing and fishing grounds is unmatched. Every charter comes with a professional captain and crew, meals, snorkeling gear, and fishing tackle as standard. Their long track record, immaculate vessel maintenance, and deep relationships with the best anchorages and fishing spots make them the premium choice for anyone wanting a bespoke ocean experience in Zanzibar.
