Kigomani beach

Kigomani is a beach in the northeast of Zanzibar island, Tanzania. The killer feature of this place is its proximity to Mnemba island (boat for day trip is US$30 from beach boy or US$90 from hotel). The place is located far from in all. There are no shops and just a few independent restaurants. But the main problem is that this is more like a "local" beach. So you can often see cows grazing on the beach. And outside the hotels, it is dirty and not cozy almost everywhere. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]

Hotels [edit]

Rooms' fares in the hotels of Kigomani range from US$80 to US$150 per night. Choose the best hotel you can afford. In this beach, the quality of your holiday is 100% dependent on the hotel.

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.
