Tanzania Safari Tours & Africa Adventures
Just south of Nungwi — the same tide-free swimming and golden sand, with famous sunsets and a relaxed but social beach scene.
Kendwa, a short hop south of Nungwi on the northwest coast, shares its neighbour’s biggest virtue — swimming at any tide on broad golden sand — with a slightly more relaxed feel. It’s renowned for its sunsets and its full-moon beach parties, but for most of the month it’s a laid-back stretch of resorts and beach bars.
It’s a great choice for travellers who want the tide-free swimming and sunset views of the north without quite the bustle of Nungwi. The two are close enough to enjoy both.
Transfer to a Kendwa beach resort.
Broad sand, calm water at any tide.
Kendwa's celebrated west-coast sunsets.
Hop to Nungwi or boat to Mnemba reef.
Kendwa gives you Nungwi's tide-free swimming and sunsets with a touch less crowd — a sweet spot for many. Be aware of the monthly full-moon party if you want quiet (or seek it out if you don't). Otherwise it's relaxed and easy.
