The island of Zanzibar is just at a mere distance of 20 minutes flight time from Tanzanian mainland.
But only few people know that they can fly directly to this stunning island from Serengeti or Lake Manyara. Hang up your safari outfit, pull out your swimming gear and head to nearest white sand beach armed with your favorite novel, your favorite cocktail and a whole mind full of safari experiences.
Zanzibar is the most popular of three islands with a history stretching back to the Sultans which is very much evident if spending time immersed in old “Stone Town”. But in true Bush2Beach style away from the crowd’s style Mafia and Pemba which make up the main island chain of the Zanzibar Archipelago are also stone’s throws away from each other. All offer excellent water sports opportunities with Mafia boasting excellent chances to snorkel with whale sharks and dive in “Chole bay” marine reserve.
Pemba not to be forgotten has world class big game fishing, some serious drift diving for the experienced scuba diver out there and with only a hand full of beach lodges to choose from you are assured of the private beach, island getaway wherever you decide to head to, as it has to be said Tanzania has it all under one big African Sky.
