Zanzibar Archipelago
Spice islands of the Swahili coast
About this destination
Powder-white beaches, UNESCO Stone Town, dhow sailing and the spice plantations that named these islands.
Zanzibar is the perfect coda to a Tanzania safari. Stone Town's labyrinth of carved doors, spice markets and Omani forts is a UNESCO site; the east coast holds endless reefs and tide-pool lagoons; the north (Nungwi, Kendwa) offers swimmable beaches at all tides.
Stay at Zuri Zanzibar or the &Beyond Mnemba Island Lodge for the most considered luxury. Add a spice tour, a dhow at sunset and a day on Mnemba Atoll's reefs.
