Tanzania Coastal Circuit: Tanzania's beaches are some of the most beautiful in the world where diving, fishing and cultural experiences are fantastic. Some of the coastal islands and towns in Tanzania are Zanzibar, Pemba and Mafia.

One of the great attractions of Tanzania is its fantastic 800 km coastline with palm fringed beaches of white sand and the historic towns of Dar es Salaam, Bagamoyo, Kilwa, Lindi, Mikindani and Mtwara, along with the exotic islands of Zanzibar, Pemba and Mafia.

Swahili language and culture trace their roots to the Indian Ocean coastline. Many explorers, sultans and slave traders encountered Africa for the first time along this history-steeped coastline and contributed to the events that were to define modern Tanzania. The islands of the Zanzibar Archipelago became principal stepping stones for the culture that was to mold Tanzania’s people and their language.

We have covered Zanzibar separately as it is such a popular destination on it's own or as a combination safari and beach vacation or honeymoon.
