Get to know Unguja.
Stone Town, spice traditions and beaches with a rhythm of their own.
Unguja is Zanzibar’s largest island and home to Stone Town. Its historic streets and courtyards offer a contrast to the island’s beaches, while spice farms, forest visits and coastal communities reveal more of its character. Choose your coast carefully: tides, beach conditions and the pace of each area vary. Balance time by the ocean with guided exploration, or keep the stay simple after a mainland Tanzania safari.
