After a dusty safari, tiring mountain treks, or simply to escape cold winter times, the beaches of Tanzania and the off-shore Zanzibar archipelago are perfect for some days of recovery and relaxation during your holiday.
Zanzibar is famed for its spices and the slave trade dating back to the 19th century. However, Zanzibar Island is much more than a stopping point on any safari itinerary; it is a unique destination in its own right. Zanzibar offers a unique combination of outstanding beaches along its eastern periphery, exciting activities such as visiting a working spice farm, and the cultural enjoyment of Stone Town, with its Arabian fortresses and minarets.
Zanzibar beaches
Zanzibar’s stunning white sand beaches, kissed by the warm turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, offer the perfect escape to relax, unwind, and take a break from the hustle and bustle of sightseeing. The beaches are a true paradise, dotted with charming fishing villages where life remains simple and timeless. With over 25 incredible beaches to explore, some are so serene and secluded that the only sound you’ll hear is the soothing rhythm of the ocean.
