In 30 minutes from the fishing village of Nungwi (Zanzibar) there is a picturesque beach and the village of the same name Pwani Mchangani. This place is suitable for a calm, secluded vacation in the bosom of pristine, exotic nature, among lush palm trees, white sand and azure ocean.
This section of the east coast of the island is characterized by pronounced low tides, which significantly limit the ability to swim. But it is always interesting to watch from the shore how the water is rapidly receding, and its shade changes in the light of the sunset rays.
Even during low tide, a picturesque reef is exposed, walking along which you can see a huge number of inhabitants of the depths of the sea. To find this place, it is enough to run your eyes along the coast. Where there is a large number of tourists at low tide and a reef will be located.
The coast of Pwani Mchangani is covered with white, very fine and soft sand, which resembles flour in structure. Walking along such a beach is difficult, but sunbathing or yoga will be very comfortable and pleasant.
A notable feature of this place is the complete absence of street lighting. Therefore, you should be prepared for the fact that after sunset the area plunges into darkness.
A large number of hotels, which were built by Italians, border near the beach. It is interesting that the local "barkers" who walk along the shore and offer to buy all kinds of goods or excursions, speak mainly Italian.
Pvani Mchangani hotels operate mainly on an all-inclusive basis. Accommodation prices start at $ 100. per day.
Each hotel has 4-5 stars and is a separate complex. Moreover, entry into their territory is available to any tourist.
In addition to full-scale hotel complexes, there are colorful bungalows and guest houses near the beach, which have a very democratic pricing policy.
Despite the abundance of hotels, shops or catering establishments in Pwani Mchangani there are very few. There are a couple of fast food stalls, small fruit and souvenir stalls. However, travelers who come to this resort mostly stay on the territory of their hotels.
Along with a beach holiday, Pvani Mchangani guests are offered several interesting excursion programs. This is the Jozani Monkey Forest near Nungwi, an excursion to the fortress of Stone Town, as well as a safari.
