In this blog post, we will take you on a virtual tour of Prison Island, unveiling the hidden stories that make it a must-visit destination on your Zanzibar tour. History of Prison Island Prison Island's history dates back to the 1860s when it was initially intended to serve as a prison for rebellious slaves. However, the construction of the prison was never completed, and instead, the island took on a different role – that of a quarantine station for individuals afflicted with contagious diseases. This transformed the island from a place of punishment to one of isolation and, ultimately, to its present role as a unique tourist destination. A Haunting Pas Prison Island's past as a quarantine station during the late 1800s casts a haunting shadow over its present. People afflicted with diseases like yellow fever, which ravaged the region at the time, were sent to the island to prevent the spread of illness to the main islands of Zanzibar. The isolation and uncertainty faced by these individuals are stories that still echo on the island.

The creepy, deserted structures serve as quiet relics of the island's past. Wandering among the remains, visitors might consider the life of those who lived here in the past and the fear they must have experienced. The Aldabra Giant Tortoises Prison Island's most captivating feature is its population of Aldabra giant tortoises. These majestic creatures, some over a century old, were a gift from the British governor of the Seychelles in the late 19th century. Crystal Clear Waters and Coral Reefs Prison Island is more than just a place with a haunting history. It's also a marine paradise, with crystal clear waters and thriving coral reefs.
