Zanzibar
The Spice Island — turquoise water, spice routes and Swahili soul.
Why Zanzibar
Zanzibar's main island (Unguja) is the post-safari beach jewel — palm-fringed white beaches, lateen-sailed dhows, and a UNESCO-listed Stone Town at its heart.
Beyond the postcard beaches, the island hides spice farms, mangrove channels, Jozani's red colobus forest, and one of the Indian Ocean's best snorkelling atolls at Mnemba.
