Enjoy light refreshments including tropical fruits, homemade bread, fresh juices, and spiced ginger tea—perfect for recharging under the sun.

Next, sail to historic Prison Island, once used as a detention center and now a peaceful sanctuary. Discover its haunting ruins and meet the island’s star residents—the giant Aldabra tortoises, some over 100 years old. Relax with a beach stroll or quick swim before savoring a flavorful Swahili buffet lunch with soft drinks.
