About this site
Turtle Reef lies in the waters off Mnemba Island, a small coral islet off the northeast coast of Unguja, Zanzibar's main island, within the Mnemba Island Marine Conservation Area. The site sits along a channel known for strong currents that draw a range of marine life to this stretch of the Zanzibar coast.
