The day begins with a trip up the Ramisi river in a motorized canoe, the river abounds with exceptional birdlife and, who knows, even the occasional crocodile.

A stop on the sandbank ensures that you’re at the most beautiful spot on the coast for swimming and making the most of this little piece of paradise (don’t forget your sunscreen, towel, and beach sandals).

Sample our seafood specialties: crab, grilled fish, coconut rice, and non-seafood menus we offer chicken or beef. Vegetarian dishes are also catered for on request.

Please note that this is not a snorkeling trip because the waters in Funzi are not clear because of the soil around the mangrove forest.
