Fundu Lagoon

This beach is a hidden gem for personal growth. We stayed here for just three days, but left feeling incredibly energized and peaceful. The accommodations, food, staff, and overall atmosphere are all of the highest quality. We can't wait to return in the near future.

Nungwi Beach
10 Zalika Nkosi

Zanzibar boasts some of the clearest beaches, and this particular one is no exception. However, the constant presence of hawkers can be a bit bothersome as they try to sell you something every couple of minutes. Despite this, it is still a beautiful beach overall.

Kendwa Beach
10 Lysander Thorne

This beach is definitely the best place to catch a sunset! We visited one evening while staying on the opposite side of the island, where the sunset isn't visible. It was a great experience watching the sunset from the beach, with locals performing dances for us. The beach offers a variety of activities, shops, restaurants, and bars that are lacking in other parts of the island.

Pemba Island Beach

This beach resort provided a unique and unforgettable experience with stunning views and comfortable rooms. The underwater room was particularly amazing, allowing me to snorkel and witness incredible marine life. The resort services and hospitality were exceptional, with inclusive meals, drinks, and activities. The Pemba Inland excursion was informative and enjoyable, while the Ngalawa sunset excursion and Sandbank excursion were both incredible. The fishing trip was a fun and educational experience. Overall, I am incredibly grateful to the staff for making this vacation so special.
