Mnemba Island

Mnemba Island is the ultimate escape. Selected by Condé Nast Traveler as one of the three most romantic ocean destinations in the world, Mnemba surpasses all expectations. The island is an incomparable barefoot paradise: private cottages are hidden in the dappled shade. The soothing rhythms of tide and time will ease your entire being - mind, body and soul.

MATING FLATWORMS

On a dive at Aquarium, we came across a really interesting sighting of two Linda’s flatworms mating.

Interesting fact: flatworms are hermaphrodites and they will engage in a violent fight in order to determine who will have to carry the offspring.
