Tanzania Vacation: The Islands
Secluded and seductive Mafia – a green wedge of land surrounded by turquoise waters, pristine islets and glinting white sandbanks – remained off the beaten track for years, undiscovered by all except deep-sea fishing aficionados and a trickle of visitors.
An island just North of Mainland Zanzibar, Pemba is far-removed from the relative hustle bustle of Zanzibar and attracts visitors particularly interested in scuba diving.
Located just off the coast of Tanzania, Zanzibar's pristine white sand beaches lined with palm trees and surrounded by coral reefs provide a perfect paradise for the conclusion of a safari.
Stone Town is said to be the only functioning ancient town in East Africa. It was an ancient trading port of the sultans of Oman in the 19th century.
