About this site
Mnemba Island sits off the northeast coast of Zanzibar, in the Zanzibar Archipelago of Tanzania, and its surrounding atoll is a well known marine conservation area. The Small Wall is one of several named dive sites around the atoll's fringing reef, set on a wall bottom that drops to a maximum depth of around 40 metres, with good visibility. It is rated a beginner dive, making it accessible for those still building experience. Divers here have reported Napoleon wrasse, reef sharks, sea turtles, snapper and stingrays along the wall.
