Zanzibar, or ‘Unguja’, the Spice island, has a history dating back to the 1st century AD, when Greek and Roman ships sailed down the east coast of Africa. Centuries later saw a succession of Arab, Persian, Portuguese and African traders all searching for ivory, tortoiseshell, ebony, coconuts, fruit, timber and of course slave trade.

Unguja consists of two islands: Zanzibar itself and Pemba. Zanzibar is roughly 85km long and 30km wide. To the north lies the island of Pemba. Although not too far from each other they have different climates and vegetation. Unlike most other Indian Ocean Islands, the monsoon season starts in early March until the end of May and then again in November. For the remainder of the year hot sunny temperatures are the norm, ranging from 26o – 28oC (80o – 83oF). Pemba is slightly cooler and receives more rainfall.

Both islands boast world-class beaches, opal coloured seas and a choice of luxury and budget hotels to suit all tastes. World famous for diving and snorkelling these seas offer unspoilt coral reefs with a variety of marine life including whales, dolphins, dugongs and big game fish. The beaches in Zanzibar are tidal and swimming is only possible at high tide. The islands are easily accessible, either by air or ferry.

The capital Stone Town is a bustling harbour town with much to offer, including fine restaurants serving local, Asian, Arabic, European and Western cuisine. Take a stroll down the main streets where vendors ply their wares above the noise of the traffic, music carts and bustling public — a colourful experience not to be missed. Leaving Stone Town and heading north, south or east, life is slower in the rural areas.
