Australia is lucky to have some of the best beaches in the world right on our door step – but sometimes it’s also nice to visit exotic islands and stunning coastlines in different countries! Africa’s archipelagos in the Indian Ocean and the beautiful coastlines of Kenya and Mozambique provide ideal settings for relaxing post-safari holidays. With their beautiful sandy beaches, coral reefs, tropical vegetation and exotic markets comes a choice of superb accommodation in places like Lamu, Zanzibar, Mozambique, Reunion and Mauritius. Its easy to find the right beach setting that will compliment your African adventure.
ZANZIBAR Zanzibar is an island off Tanzania, characterised by beautiful white sandy beaches with fringing coral reefs, and the historical Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The old city and cultural heart of Zanzibar has changed little over the years, when it was once one of the most important trading centres in the Indian Ocean. It is a place of winding alleys, bustling bazaars, mosques and grand Arab houses, dating back to the days of the Omani Sultanate. | |
MOZAMBIQUE The white beaches and protected coral reefs of the relatively unknown Quirimbas Archipelago, off the coast of Northern Mozambique, are still very untouched, but rapidly becoming the “hottest" new destination! With its history and ancient culture, combined with crystal waters, abundance of marine life – a diving, deep sea fishing and snorkelling paradise – and boutique accommodation combine together to make the Quirimbas a very special place. | |
LAMU On Kenya’s northern coastline, Lamu remains a relatively undiscovered gem. It may only be an hour’s flight north east of Nairobi, but it feels as if you have travelled back in time! Lamu Old Town is the oldest and best-preserved Swahili settlement in East Africa. There’s only one car on the island so donkeys are still the main mode of transport. Life slows down, and long days are spent strolling along the waterfront, exploring the town or relaxing on the beach! | |
MAURITIUS Many of Africa’s best beach resorts can be found in Mauritius and a stay at any offers a relaxing experience after a busy wildlife safari! Or for those looking for something more energetic, other activities on offer include golf, swimming with dolphins and walking with lions! Such a stay is enhanced by the unique and spicy cuisine, by people who are themselves a casserole of nationalities! |
