Kijambani beach

Kijambani is a series of small beaches to the north of Kigomani town in Zanzibar island, Tanzania. Being located far away from the village has its advantages. Each beach is bounded on both sides by rocks, so there are not many people and almost no beach sellers. This is also the closest beach to Mnemba paradise island. This is very important for those who are seasick after long boat trips. Anyway, everything is quite like on most of Zanzibar east coast - with palms, white sand and walking along the reef at low tide. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]

Hotels [edit]

Rooms' fares in the hotels of Kijambani start from US$100 per night. In general, this is a rather expensive destination. But most of the hotels are of a very high standard.

How to get there [edit]

Fly to Zanzibar international airport (ZNZ). Next hire a taxi.

At the current time, there are many direct flights to Zanzibar. So connections flight via Dar es Salaam makes sense only in case, if you plan a safari on the mainland.

When to go [edit]

Feel free to relax in Zanzibar any time of year - except for the pronounced rainy season in April.
