Penal Island Zanzibar, often referred to as Changuu Island, is a little island that spans 5.6 kilometers. Despite its troubled past, Tanzania's Changuu island has emerged as a must-see gem, with its main draw being a sizable tortoise sanctuary.
The first British minister of Zanzibar bought Changuu Island with the primary plan of constructing a prison there.
The initial idea of building a prison is where the term Prison Island came from. Actually, it was briefly employed as a coral mine and a prison for freed slaves in the 1860s.
On the island, no prison facilities were actually constructed; instead, it served as a quarantine facility for people with yellow fever. It is now a well-liked vacation spot, a government-owned resort, and the habitat of numerous critically endangered Aldabra giant tortoises.
