Great trip to Nakupenda and Prison Island

Published on Aug, 2024

All the process was very easy through whatsapp and we enjoyed our time with Blue Wave. The captain and reservation made the experience better.

A perfect day in paradise!

Published on Jul, 2024

We had a wonderful time with Blue Wave! We booked the Nakupenda Sandbank and Prison Island tour but we really wanted to snorkel after the sandbank. They were so accommodating that we stayed at Nakupenda until it disappeared and then we were going snorkeling. Lunch was scrumptious! Grilled seafood, octopus, fish, shrimp, prawns, squid, fruits and chips (French fries)! The best octopus I’ve had! The day was perfect! I highly recommend Blue Wave. Thank you!!
