If you consider yourself a beach person and you plan on visiting Zanzibar, Mtende Beach definitely needs to be added to your list. The main section of the beach is situated between two rock formations, in a big cove. It’s absolutely stunning, and one of the coolest places to watch the tides change on the island.

Jambiani Beach is the idyllic, low-key Zanzibar destination of your dreams — where men still bring in the early morning catch by dugout canoe and children play soccer on the beach until the tide swallows up the pitch.
Where coral stone and thatch roof houses huddle close together and locals greet visitors with a friendly smile and gesture.
