Mbudya island
Ultimate guide (April 2024)
Mbudya is an island near Dar es Salaam in Tanzania. The beach is beautiful with clear water and without any trash. There are a lot of trees and even the baobab. However, there are no palms, so the landscape is not looking like the real tropical paradise. On weekends, it usually becomes crowdy due to the locals. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]

Hotels [edit]
