This particular stretch of coastline boasts a sandy shore that stretches out as far as the eye can see. However, reaching it can be a bit of a challenge, as the access road is quite rough and requires a sturdy vehicle or a strong stomach to navigate. Unfortunately, the two rooms we stayed in during our visit lacked functioning toilets, which was certainly an inconvenience. While the beach is conveniently located near Dar, it's important to keep in mind that you get what you pay for. Holding a grudge is unlikely to be productive, as the accommodations are fairly basic. Personally, I don't anticipate returning unless there is a compelling reason to do so.
