The allure of Zanzibar is legendary. Historically one of East Africa’s great trading centers, the archipelago has for centuries been a crossroads of culture and a melting pot of exotic influences; where Africa, India and Arabia meet. The Zanzibar archipelago is made up of numerous islands and islets. Each of the two main islands, Unguja (informally Zanzibar) and Pemba, has its own distinct character. The name Zanzibar is synonymous with images of pristine white sandy beaches, and alluring azure waters. The coastline is laced with winding creeks and mangroves, interspersed by these heavenly beaches. The sea is awash with magnificent creatures and dazzling colors, discoverable by snorkeling, scuba or scenic boat trips. Dolphins, whales, sea turtles and vibrant fish are some of the amazing creatures found in the Zanzibar waters.
Other than its renowned beaches and ocean, Zanzibar’s major attraction is Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Time has stood still here, as the white-washed stone buildings, winding alleys and local people exist as they have done for centuries. It is known for its cultural heritage, a still-living and breathing testament to the historical era of the spice and Arabic slave trade.
The ultimate romantic destination, Kilindi is the perfect setting for a special occasion. With a picturesque tropical backdrop and the personal touches of warm African hospitality, you can relax and enjoy the atmosphere of romance.
