In Summary: Which Season to Choose?

For maximum sunshine, the long dry season from June to October is perfect. It's the ideal time to enjoy the beaches and water activities. The short dry season, from January to February, is also excellent with warm temperatures.

The rainy seasons (March to May and November-December) experience showers, often short and intense, but the sun returns quickly. These periods are less crowded and can offer more attractive rates for a more tranquil experience of the island.

Which season to choose?

June-Oct & Jan-Feb (Dry Seasons): Ideal for beaches and good weather.

Rainy Seasons (Mar-May & Nov-Dec): Fewer crowds, better rates, lush nature.

Explore the Island's Treasures

Visit the fascinating Stone Town

Plunge into the heart of Zanzibar's history by exploring Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Get lost in its maze of alleys, admire its famous carved wooden doors, visit the old slave market and the house of Freddie Mercury. An unforgettable cultural immersion.

Take a "Spice Tour" (Spice Route)

Discover why Zanzibar is nicknamed "the Spice Island." During this sensory excursion, you will visit a local plantation to see, smell, and taste cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, vanilla, and a multitude of tropical fruits picked directly from the tree.

Explore Jozani Forest

Go and meet a species unique to the world: the Red Colobus monkey of Zanzibar. A walk through Jozani National Park, the island's last indigenous forest sanctuary, will allow you to observe these agile primates in their natural habitat, as well as an impressive mangrove forest.

Dive near Mnemba Atoll

Whether you are a fan of scuba diving or snorkeling, the Mnemba Atoll is a must-see. Its protected coral reefs are home to a true life-size aquarium: clownfish, turtles, and sometimes even dolphins await you there.
