Zanzibar beaches
Beach holiday
Zanzibar, an archipelago off the eastern coast of Tanzania, is a magical destination known for its pristine beaches, hidden forests, and rich history. The largest island, Unguja (commonly known as Zanzibar), boasts turquoise waters, coral reefs, and expansive beaches to the north and west, while the southeast is favored by surfers and dolphin watchers. Visitors can explore spice plantations, walk through Jozani Forest, enjoy deep-sea fishing, or visit the famous giant tortoises on Prison Island, some over 150 years old.
Zanzibar’s vibrant history reflects Arab, Portuguese, and Indian influences, seen in its ornate doors, historic buildings, and aromatic spices that flavor the local cuisine. It’s a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation, offering everything from wildlife encounters to tranquil beachside massages and sundowners.
