We used this destination to relax a bit after rough off-roading in the last few days. To our surprise, this popular beach area, located just an hour’s drive from Dar es Salaam, was pretty developed, but still charming and relaxing. It is known for its pristine white-sand beaches, clear Indian Ocean waters, and a variety of resorts and restaurants. We enjoyed swimming, sunbathing, and the restaurant of Kipepeo Beach Resort (long-term parking possible for 5 USD / day). The area also offers a chance to experience authentic Tanzanian culture, with local markets, vibrant events, and a warm, hospitable community.
