Prison Island, also known as Changuu Island or Quarantine Island, has a rich history. In 1893, the former British prime minister of Zanzibar purchased the island and constructed a prison complex, though it was never used for its intended purpose. Instead, it served as a quarantine station for yellow fever cases.[5] Today, the building is a ruin but functions as a guesthouse for tourists. A significant attraction on Prison Island is the giant tortoise reserve. In 1919, four Aldabra giant tortoises, a gift from the governor of Seychelles, were brought to the island. They thrived in the environment and bred freely, with some of the original settlers still present. The island also features a nursery for baby tortoises, providing an opportunity to see tortoises of various ages.[5] Visitors can admire, pet, and even feed these ancient creatures.[3] The Aldabra tortoise species is currently considered vulnerable and is listed on the IUCN Red List.
Nakupenda beach Sandbank is described as a stunning, picture-perfect paradise with soft white sand and clear turquoise waters.[1] It offers an opportunity to relax, swim, and soak up tropical vibes.[1] Some tours to Nyange Sandbank aim to provide a more secluded experience, away from crowded areas.[3] The sandbank is approximately 30 minutes from Stone Town by boat.[3] Activities at Nyange Sandbank often include snorkeling, with equipment provided, and enjoying a BBQ lunch featuring fresh seafood, salads, and fruits.[3] Visitors can also relax in the sun or under shades, swim, or walk along the sandbank.[3] Some excursions combine a visit to Prison Island with a trip to a sandbank, sometimes referred to as Pange Sandbank, which is located near Nyange Sandbank.[4] These combined tours often include boat transfers, professional guides, snorkeling gear, and meals.
