Zanzibar Archipelago

After a week of early starts and dusty tracks, Zanzibar is exactly what you want. Warm Indian Ocean, dhow sails at sunset and Stone Town's spice-scented lanes waiting to be wandered.

We match the coast to the trip: north for swimmable beaches and nightlife, east for kite-surfing and quiet lagoons, or offshore to Mnemba and Pemba for the best diving.
