While you can spend your entire seaside trip in Zanzibar at the Baraza, you must explore the island and revel in its delightful ambience of ancient and present day attractions.

You can go on a primate viewing tour to the Jozani Forest, a reserve set aside for the protection of the rare red colobus monkeys.

The famous spice and fruit plantations that made Zanzibar an important fixture on the spice route is another attraction you must visit. Here, you can view the zings in their natural form growing on the trees. Learn how to harvest them and their many other uses aside from flavoring food.



Also, sink your teeth into the luscious fruits unique to this part of Eastern Africa and savor their delectable taste long after you return home. Spend time on the seashore of Zanzibar with the incredible vistas of the shimmering turquoise blue of the Indian Ocean where it offsets by the pure white sands and lush tropical greenery.

Go scuba diving and snorkeling off the coral reefs around Bwejuu or even at Mnemba Atoll, a marine reserve off Matemwe Beach on the northeast of the island. You will be captivated by the stunning diversity of the colorful coral and their many moving inhabitants. Deep sea fishing is another activity you can enjoy during your travels of Zanzibar (why visit it). There are various designated sites where you can try angling for billfish like swordfish, marlins, sailfish and others.
