Easy to combine with a safari in Kenya or Tanzania, the Zanzibar Archipelago is a popular choice for a beach break. The beaches are outstanding with good snorkelling and diving. We offer a wide range of places to stay from simple ‘feet in the sand’ style beach lodges to stylish, exclusive resorts. A Zanzibar beach holiday is ideal for a winter sun and as a break to help you through the gloom of the British winter. Both Pemba Island and Mafia Island have little development and provide real secluded time on the beach. Dont miss a guided tour of the capital, Stone Town, as this really helps to understand the island's history as a great trading centre in the Indian Ocean.
