Show Notes

In episode 3 of local guides in Africa we talk to a guide with a difference. A scuba diving guide and instructor from Tanzania called Frank Mollel. 

He’s a proud Masai from the mountains near Arusha and discovered an absolute passion for diving 15-years ago and never looked back. 

His passion has led him on a crusade to help teach the local communities of Zanzibar to swim, dive and care for the ocean through understanding more about the environment.  

Frank instructed Julia to become a qualified diver in 2018 and he promises to be there when Stuart learns to dive. He did try to teach James how to put on a traditional masai blanket but that didn’t go so well.  

A very, very cool dude and we hope you enjoy our little journey discovering Frank’s love for protecting the environment, for Zanzibar and for diving in the ocean! 

Check out: 

Linda Bahari project on Facebook to learn more about their work in Zanzibar supporting the community in teaching them to dive and appreciate the Ocean. 

Dive Point Zanzibar – a great dive school in Zanzibar also supporting Linda Bahari project. 

Marine Lodge Zanzibar where dive point diving school is – a great property near the key diving points in Zanzibar.
