Responsible travel in Zanzibar
Zanzibar is made up of 3 islands: Unguja, Pemba and Mafia. Above all, it has immense beaches and coconut palms for shelter after a safari in Tanzania. You can also visit the old town.
Zanzibar is an archipelago in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Tanzania. The warm waters of the Indian Ocean, the immense white sandy beaches sheltered by coconut palms will delight travelers looking for relaxation or rest after a safari in Tanzania or a Kilimanjaro climb.
Zanzibar’s beaches are generally beautiful, especially on the east coast. A long stretch of pinkish-white sand stretches along the island from north to south. To the southeast, the flat, pure beach is so vast that it becomes a cycle path… which creates a magnificent landscape. But… Zanzibar has tides. True tides can erode a beach or make it infinite. Even though the beauty of the beach is undeniable, people rarely swim there. In fact, the beach is also very shallow. So we would be knee-deep in water for so long that we would have preferred the hotel pool or the lovely place that still exists.
