Tropical Spice Archipelago

Zanzibar Island

Explore historic Swahili architecture, powder-white coral beaches, fragrant spice plantations, and crystal-clear turquoise waters.

The Jewel of the Indian Ocean

Zanzibar is an extraordinary semi-autonomous archipelago off the coast of mainland Tanzania. Composed primarily of Unguja (the main island, commonly called Zanzibar) and Pemba Island, alongside smaller coral islets, Zanzibar combines centuries of ancient Swahili trade culture with breathtaking natural beauty.

From the narrow winding alleys of UNESCO World Heritage-listed Stone Town to the pristine coral reefs of Mnemba Atoll and the rare Red Colobus monkeys of Jozani Forest, Zanzibar offers a perfect beach getaway or safari finale.
