Climate & Best Time to Visit

Zanzibar has a pleasant tropical climate for most parts of the year. Except the rainy season (March-April), when heavy rains can be a deal breaker, any time is a good time to visit the archipelago. With cool and dry weather, spring (June to October) is when Zanzibar is at its best. If you love scuba diving, then book your holidays anytime between June and August. November to March is another good time to enjoy natural beauty and water sports at the archipelago.

Eating Out

Zanzibar is an exciting place for epicureans. The archipelago brims with a wide range of dining venues serving local as well as international delicacies. While hedonists can enjoy stylish dining at the ritzy restaurants, travellers on limited budget have scores of eateries and food stalls to satiate their cravings as well. Stonetown, Michamvi, Paje, and Nungwi are some of the places known for their great dining opportunities.

Shopping

Love shopping? Zanzibar has plenty of options for you. Head to Stone Town for beautiful textiles, handmade jewellery, knick-knacks, and intricate wood or stone carvings. The Spice Island offers some of the finest spices in Tanzania. Markets at the south east coast are popular for selling high quality handbags, sandals, clothes, and laptop/notebook covers.

Popular Zanzibar Resorts & Hotels

When it comes to accommodation, Zanzibar has something for all. Well-heeled travellers buying luxury holiday packages can choose from the world-class properties located at popular tourist areas. Some notable options include Double Tree by Hilton Resort Zanzibar - Nungwi, Zanzibar Palace Hotel, Essque Zalu Zanzibar, and Zanzibar White Sand Luxury Villas & Spa. Budget-friendly options are available in large numbers, too.

Tips and Advice

You must show respect to the local culture and traditions. Don't wander around on the beaches after drinking. People are warm and friendly. However, it is important to be vigilant at the crowded places. Don't leave your belongings unattended. Do carry sunglasses, light and comfortable clothing, and loads of sunscreen.

Zuri Zanzibar Hotel & Resort

Zuri Zanzibar Hotel & Resort

KENDWA

THE HOTEL is not made up of rooms; just villas, and bungalows. Each separated from one another to attain absolute privacy, and all of them outfitted with outdoor showers and large terraces. The size of plot could easily accommodate twice as many houses, but we decided to build only 56 of them. Nestled on a west-facing slope, most of the units enjoy direct sea-views. And ceilings reach for the sky: African-style roofing delivers a breathtaking cathedral-like feeling over your bed and cannot be compared to anything you would find in busy Western cities. On the other hand, being so far away from civilization, we did not want to compromise the quality of your connection with the rest of the world, which is why we have built own dedicated fast internet line to the mainland – the only hotel in Zanzibar to date!
