Zanzibar, spice island

Just a short flight in a small aircraft away from Daressalam lays Zanzibar. A tropical island with white beaches and warm sea. The airport is near Stone town and if you catch the early flight you will be in time for breakfast on the beach followed by a boat trip to prison island just out of Stone Town. Make sure you bring your own snorkling gear. In the south of the island the beaches are nicer but the water not deep enough for a swim. Zanizibar is famous for vanilla, cloves and nutmeg and you can visit a farm where they grow all. Either relax for a few days or take the flight back to Dar in the late afternoon. There are also ferries but I recommend thev20 minute flight.

Zanzibar, melia resort enjoying the breeze of the Indian Ocean

Jambiani beach Zanzibar

If you like kite surfing this is the right place for you!

After staying at the famous Matemwe Beach on the island, the landlord Tim said goodbye to his flight career, and his wife Joyce moved from the Middle East to this comfortable and comfortable island to establish their home on the sea. The whole house was hand-made by their own hands. From the moment they entered the door, they were embraced by a gentle Indian Ocean sea breeze. They walked into the living room and had a hole in the sky, like accidentally crossing the door of time to the HNA era. The whole house is designed according to the traditional Swahili architecture, using the unique stone and palm leaves of Africa. The ground is covered with Persian rugs. The intricate wooden carved doors make people shine. Arabia The characteristic conical roof and the hollow wooden lattice wall keep the breeze in the house. Even in the hot summer by the sea, it is a cool place to lie in the house. It is really a summer resort. In the green corridor next to the house, the lilac flowers are quietly blooming, and every night they sleep with flowers.

The residents of Zanzibar Island are but many Maasai people have migrated to the Indian Ocean to do small business. On the beach, there are many Maasai guides who wear tribal scorpions, sandals made of tires on their feet, and a stick to find tourists. We have encountered a lot. One of the Maasai calls themselves Pete, saying that he has been on Zanzibar for three years and is walking around the beach every day. I have been dealing with tourists for a long time and I have learned a good English. After that, we gave us a famous Maasai dance and danced.

The "criminal" here can appreciate 360 degrees without a dead end, beautiful sea view, East Africa, small island recommended! Prison Island, also known as Changgu Island, is a holiday island attached to Zanzibar Island. It is located about 4 kilometers north of Stone Town and only takes 30-40 by boat. I can reach in minutes, here I enjoy the most beautiful sea view! The color of the sea water varies greatly with distance and light and shadow, rich and beautiful. Historical history is called prison island because the late 19th century, the British government plans to build a prison dedicated to imprisoning crimes in Zanzibar, prisons Although it was completed, it did not hold any criminals from beginning to end. On the contrary, when the yellow fever was raging, the built prison became a isolation place for yellow fever patients. Today, it has become a famous tourist resort, and many Europeans will bring their families to the resort during their holidays. Its so great that this small island was discovered by me! In addition to the source of the name, the charming seascape, the longevity elephant turtle on the prison island is also a major feature. 1919, the Governor of Seychelles gave the Governor of Zanzibar four elephants to Changgu Island. Since then, it has become a paradise for these giant elephant tortoises. The tortoise is the largest terrestrial turtle species and they are very long-lived. It is said that their average life span can reach more than 150 years old. Every one here is like an age mark on the back of the turtle. I found that the one with the longest life is already 190 years old! Feeding activities Elephant turtles are gentle and like plants, so you can experience the zero-distance feeding of turtles on the prison island. Honestly, although the turtles have long been heard, but after seeing them, I was shocked by their size some turtles even had a lap than adult males. They are like stones in the shade, standing still and waiting for our feeding. Come and experience a lot of tourists who are feeding turtles. If you still have children, then I think this is a great place to be close to nature!

Zanzibar Island has a crystal clear blue in the daytime, and also has a slightly orange in the evening. I always like to wander around the beach at sunset. On one weekend, Muslims ran to the beach to celebrate, and all of them went out. Muslim girls wore robes, wrapped headscarves, danced on the beach, and the sun shone on them, like a dancing elf. On weekdays, religious people are not allowed to take pictures. At this moment, I was warmly invited to be a photographer. The sunset of the day was a little unexpected.

Beautiful Shelled Creatures

During one of the day tours in zanzibar, we took a boat over to prison Island. The boat ride was really nice and relaxing and on the way back we had the lovely sunset to appreciate. Our tour guide told us the history about the island which was very insightful and then took us in to see the tortoise, gosh they're huge! We were able to get up close and touch and feed them which was a great experience too. #zanzibar
