One of the nicest parts of Sansibar. Jambiani Beach. The Blue Oyster Hotel is worth every single minute to stay there.
Beached! Traditionally dhows such as these were sewn together using coconut coir (fibre) – a medieval practice born from the belief that magnets under the sea would suck any nails out of a vessel, thus condemning the crew to certain death beneath the waves. #Dhow #Beach #Beaches #LifeatExpedia

Cabana view of Bwejuu Beach on the east coast of Zanzibar. This luxury resort is a wonderful place to relax after a couple weeks of safari. Either that, or host a small destination wedding here - the white sand beach has been rated one of the best in the world and, due to it's remote location, is never crowded. In fact, The Palms only has six large bungalows while the neighboring property, Breezes, has 60 rooms. Otherwise, the beach is yours to share with the few locals who wander by.

Get away to relaxing Bwejuu! Enjoy the beaches, snorkelling and jungle.
