On arrival in Zanzibar you are met and transferred to your preffered beach Hotel.
Zanzibar is an insular semi-autonomous region which united with Tanganyika in
1964 to form the United Republic of Tanzania. It is an archipelago in the Indian
Ocean, 25–50 km (16–31 mi) off the coast of the African mainland, and consists of
many small islands and two large ones: Unguja (the main island, referred to
informally as Zanzibar) and Pemba Island. The capital is Zanzibar City, located on
the island of Unguja. Its historic centre, Stone Town, is a World Heritage Site.
Zanzibar's main industries are spices, raffia, and tourism. The main spices
produced are clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, coconut, and black pepper. The Zanzibar
Archipelago, together with Tanzania's Mafia Island, are sometimes referred to
locally as the "Spice Islands". Tourism in Zanzibar is a more recent activity, driven
by government promotion that caused an increase from 19,000 tourists in 1985, to
376,000 in 2016. The islands are accessible via 5 ports and the Abeid Amani
Karume International Airport, which can serve up to 1.5 million passengers per
year.
Zanzibar's marine ecosystem is an important part of the economy for fishing and
algaculture and contains important marine ecosystems that act as fish nurseries for
Indian Ocean fish populations. Moreover, the land ecosystem is the home of the
endemic Zanzibar red colobus, the Zanzibar servaline genet, and the extinct or rare
Zanzibar leopard. Pressure from the tourist industry and fishing as well as larger
threats such as sea level rise caused by climate change are creating increasing
environmental concerns throughout the region.
