Lodges here normally have additional space than those in the Nungwi area, although like the north, the beaches here incline extremely little. This entails that once the lunar time period is out, the water retreats a long way furthermore swimming from the coastline is difficult – tho’ paddling to the top of the bared reef with the exact local guide is appealing!

There’s pleasing diving as well as snorkelling here, and both Matemwe along with Shooting Star have accessible dive centres for effortless diving in addition to snorkelling trips. (Such trips oftentimes visit the reefs as regards to Mnemba Island.)

A relative entrant to the scene is the simple although promising Pongwe Beach Hotel. (Don’t be misdirected by the name: it is more of a lodge than a resort!) It stands in a shady cove of its own and is an effortless, and excellent value good-value spot.

Above the striking Kiwengwa Beach, Shooting Star has been an organization loved for years. It’s run by a magnetic Zanzibari man, Elly, furthermore it’s maybe as a result of him that it draws a youthful crowd into its active social mix. It’s a sociable place despite the number of honeymoon couples!
