Mazizini beach
Ultimate guide (November 2024)
Mazizini is a beach located between the Old town (Stone Town) and the airport of
Zanzibar island. In general, views are scenic enough. But the beach is not very good for swimming. The sand is not white, but rather like a mud. There is also problem of strong low tides, when the sea goes far and the landscape becomes completely sad. Shore and seabed: sand, pebbles.

Hotels [edit]
Rooms' fares in Mazizini hotels start from US$50 per night. While the choice of available accommodation options is limited.
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.
