Latest reviews on Zanzibar South & Central's beaches

Jambiani Beach
10 Blossom

A stunning beach with a serene atmosphere and welcoming locals. However, be cautious of sharp objects while strolling along the shore. It's unfortunate that some visitors leave litter behind, so it's advisable to wear water shoes.

Kizimkazi Beach
10 Eshira Baron

We had an amazing experience and are extremely thankful to Hassan and his team. He was incredibly accommodating since we were a sizable group. Communicating with him through WhatsApp was effortless, making it simple to plan our day. Once again, thank you.

Mtende Beach
10 Sara Malinsky

This beach in Zanzibar is truly stunning. Since we lived nearby, we were fortunate enough to experience the beach from different perspectives: the vibrant mornings, the ebb and flow of the tides, breathtaking sunsets, and even encounters with the Maasai people. If you're visiting Zanzibar, this is definitely a place you shouldn't miss.
