Vacations
The East African Coast is perhaps one of the most scenic, serene and beautiful beach destinations in the world. With warm calm waters of the Indian Ocean and great weather all year round, the coast of East Africa will offer an idyllic vacation that is sure to recharge your batteries! A coral reef shelters the beach across the length of the East African coastline. This makes it particularly safe from sharks, marine stingers and other marine hazards. It also ensures that the waters at the beach are relatively calm throughout the year. The beach is characterized by white sandy beach and warm waters near the shore, dotted with towering palm trees and warm humid weather.
The coast of Kenya, Tanzania and Zanzibar are some of the best places to have a vacation away from everything. It is a great place to unwind. You can watch sunrise in the morning, enjoy amazing coastal cuisine, tour local villages and spend the rest of your day just lying in the sun getting your tan.
