Travelers will explore the famous whale shark area of Ghoubet Bay, one of the best places in the world to encounter these gentle giants. From the boat, guests can admire the volcanic cliffs surrounding the bay and the deep blue waters of the Gulf of Tadjourah. During the snorkeling session, travelers may observe whale sharks swimming calmly near the surface, along with tropical fish and marine life. The guide will explain safety rules, marine behavior, and the unique ecosystem of Ghoubet. Time is provided for photos, relaxation on the boat, and enjoying the natural beauty of the bay.
Travelers will explore the Ardoukoba volcanic area, located between Ghoubet Bay and Lake Assal. This region marks the point where the African continent is splitting into two, creating visible tectonic fissures and dramatic rift formations. Guests can walk on ancient lava fields, observe the crater zone, and discover the black basalt landscape shaped by the 1978 eruption. The guide will explain the geology, the rift system, and how the African and Arabian plates continue to separate. This stop offers excellent opportunities for photos, short walks, and learning about Djibouti’s unique volcanic history.
