Where tropical tranquility meets island adventure
Hamia Zanzibar occupies a peaceful, privately fenced compound in the northern tip of Zanzibar island — one of the most sought-after areas for holidaymakers. We're tucked away from the bustle, yet perfectly connected to everything.
The northern coast of Zanzibar is famous for its year-round warm waters, spectacular sunsets, and vibrant marine life. It's the part of the island where the ocean stays calm and swimmable regardless of the tide — unlike the east coast.
Northern Zanzibar is home to some of the island's most iconic beaches — all within easy reach of Hamia Zanzibar.
A stunning stretch of powder-white sand known for its calm, deep-turquoise waters. Home to the famous Full Moon parties, boutique beach clubs, and some of the best snorkeling on the island. The tide barely affects swimming here.
