Kinazi Upepo, Paje, Zanzibar: Thursday 14th October.
We arrived in Zanzibar on the late ferry, which was an amazing way to arrive onto the island; the turquoise waters, white sandy beaches and the outline of Stone Town as the sun set was beautiful.
Staying 2 nights in Stone Town gave us the chance to explore in the day light the Arabesque winding streets and narrow alley ways.
On Friday morning we headed to Nungwi at the most northern point of the island and the most amazing beach of white sand (Helen described it as being like caster sugar) and green/blue clear waters. The placed we stayed was a rasta run bar /beach hut and we spent 3 days relaxing on the beach. He atmosphere was very backpacker-y with los of beach bars playing music until he early hours. We also visited Paje, |Tanzania’s kite surfing paradise on the east of the island, again it was very beautiful and we stayed in a banda under the palm trees just off the beach front.
Later today we’re heading back to Dar ready for our flight to India. We’re going to use our last few days souvenir shopping, we’ve go our eye on a bookcase made from old an dhow boat/canoe. Hopefully we’ll find one we love and that we can to ship home (well to Mother Bull’s!) ready for our return.
