Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Kua Lagoon. This hidden-away turquoise pool, known for its colonies of harmless upside-down jellyfish, is a must-see for nature lovers and those seeking a unique swimming or snorkeling experience.
This tour begins with a boat ride from Mafia Island to Juani Island. As you near the coastline, your guide will lead you through a shallow mangrove channel that opens into the bright, clear expanse of the lagoon.
Once there, you’ll be greeted by shimmering blue waters and the sight of upside-down jellyfish drifting in the shallows. Safe to swim and snorkel among, these jellyfish create an unforgettable and surreal experience. The calm waters invite you to float peacefully or explore beneath the surface.
Depending on the tide, you may also witness the surrounding reef exposed, with waves crashing dramatically against its edge. After enjoying time in the water and soaking up the unique atmosphere, you’ll board your boat once more for your return to Mafia Island.
By combining the Lagoon Tour with the Juani Island Hatching Turtles Tour, you can make a fantastic full-day excursion to explore the wonders of Juani Island.
