Hi Staci,
Were glad you like our blog and find it useful. Thanks! 🙂
I would recommend the ferry. We enjoyed the ride and didn’t have a rough transfer at all. Especially when you arrive towards zanzibar you have a nice view to the city and a white beach there.
We have heard that a night ferry can be more rough so probably best to avoid that. And also in the fall, November is rainy season so I would guess it can be a bit more rough there as well though we haven’t actually visited at that time of the year yet.
And if you don’t want to do ferry both ways you can always sail one way and fly the other to experience both.
Hope you guys will have an awesome trip there! It easily beat our expectations 🙂

If you take the ferry ride over to the island verses flying… is the boat ride pretty calm or would it probably depend on the season? I ask because I would hate for a ride that I would take only for relaxing and seeing the ocean to turn into an unpleasant/non-relaxing experience. Which would you suggest, flight or ferry?
