Baraka Natural Aquarium is considered the best sea turtle aquarium in Zanzibar. It’s a popular destination among tourists who come to enjoy a close, natural encounter with these gentle marine creatures. The aquarium is home to sea turtles that were either accidentally caught by fishermen or injured in the wild. They are brought here for care and recovery in a natural lagoon. Once they are fully healed, they are released back into the open ocean.
Visiting this aquarium offers you a unique opportunity to swim with sea turtles. You can feed them with seaweed or simply enjoy spending time with them in the water. For a closer look, you can wear a snorkeling mask and dive alongside the turtles, observing them in their natural environment.
One of the best ways to experience the Baraka Aquarium is by combining it with other nearby attractions such as the Nungwi Village Tour, the Marine Turtle Conservation Tour, or a relaxing visit to Kendwa Beach. However, even a standalone visit to the turtle aquarium is a memorable experience filled with fun and interaction.
