Tanzania Safari Tours & Africa Adventures
A long, palm-backed east-coast beach with a good spread of resorts — easygoing, scenic, and well-placed for island excursions.
Kiwengwa stretches along Zanzibar’s central-east coast: a long, palm-fringed beach of soft white sand backed by a good range of resorts, from all-inclusive to boutique. It’s a classic east-coast beach — scenic and relaxed, with the characteristic big tides that expose wide flats at low water.
Its central position makes it a handy base for excursions across the island, from Mnemba snorkelling to Jozani Forest and Stone Town. It suits travellers wanting a comfortable, scenic beach base without the bustle of the north.
Transfer to a Kiwengwa beach resort.
Soft sand, palms, and resort comforts.
Walk the flats at low tide, swim at high.
Day trips to Mnemba, Jozani, or Stone Town.
A solid, scenic east-coast choice with plenty of resort options and a central location for day trips. Like all east-coast beaches it's tidal, so swimming follows the tide. It lacks a strong 'scene' of its own — which is exactly right if you want comfort and a base rather than nightlife.
