Zanzibar is one of Tanzania’s top destinations because of its fascinating past and its incredible beaches. Zanzibar’s location in the Indian Ocean has made it a natural trading center throughout its history. Famous for its spices, Zanzibar also became an important slave trading post under its Arab rulers.
Located off the coast of Dar es Salaam, the spice island of Zanzibar is steeped in history. The capital, Stone Town, was built by Arab slave-traders and spice merchants who left their mark in the form of elaborate Islamic architecture. Stone Town, Zanzibar’s capital, is a World Heritage site and boasts beautiful traditional houses, narrow alleyways, a Sultan’s palace, and many mosques.
The island’s beaches are blissful, while surrounding reefs offer ample opportunity for scuba diving. Zanzibar has many beautiful beaches, that can be enjoyed on any budget. Some of the surrounding islands offer a total paradise for the luxury traveler, Mnemba Island is absolutely idyllic for a romantic vacation.
Some of the best beaches on earth can be found in the Zanzibar archipelago, and Mafia Island is equally idyllic.
