Sunset Dhow Cruise, A beautiful thing to do is to sail an old Arabian dhow along the coast of Zanzibar. Your dhow tour starts in Stone Town at 4:30 p.m. and sails along the shores of this interesting and ancient town. Watch as the sun goes down over the Indian Ocean. The town and sky are a lovely lilac color. On board, you can get snacks, soft drinks, and beer. Live music plays as the dhow goes farther out to sea.
