South-East:
This part of the island is known for its long stretch of soft sandy beaches. It is the best spot on the island for sailing or kite- and windsurfing, thanks to steady winds. Hop on a traditional wooden sailboat (dhow) and sail the ocean, or go swimming with dolphins at Kizimkazi (south). Here you will find little villages like Jambiani, Paje, and Bwejuu. These small fishing villages have a nice timeless atmosphere with friendly people. One of our favorite villages is Jambiani. Check out why we think Jambiani is the place to be in Zanzibar.
South-West:
On this side of the beach, it is a bit deserted and the accommodation places on this site are also few.
Most of the beaches on this side of the island are deserted and only attract a handful of visitors who frequent the few beautiful tourist points on the beach.
