Zanzibar is an island in the Indian Ocean, lying 22 miles (35 km) off the coast Tanzania renowned for its white sandy beaches, crystal clear turquoise waters, and idyllic palm-fringed shores. The archipelago boasts some of the most picturesque and unspoiled beaches in the world, along with rich cultural heritage influenced by Arab, Persian, Indian, and European traders throughout history.
While “Zanzibar” is often used to refer to one island, it actually represents a beautiful and diverse archipelago off the coast of Tanzania. Comprising three main islands—Unguja (commonly known as Zanzibar Island), Pemba, and sometimes Mafia—Zanzibar is a region rich in natural wonders, cultural heritage, and historical depth. Each island has its own unique appeal, from Unguja’s bustling Stone Town and serene beaches to Pemba’s lush landscapes and Mafia’s pristine marine reserves. Together, these islands create a destination unlike any other, offering something for every traveler.
