Ushongo Beach - around 17 km (11 miles) south of the old Arab slaving town of Pangani, is possibly the most seductive place to find yourself barefoot under a thatched umbrella with scubadiving, snorkling, and fishing just around the corner. We plan safaries to nearby safariparks or safaries before or after your stay to all of Tanzanias nationalparks.

Scuba divning and snorkling

Discover an underwater safari by exploring Maziwe Marine Reserve in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Tanzania. Staying at The Baobab Beach Villa brings you close to discover this marine paradise. Considered one of the best diving destinations along the Eastern African Coast, Maziwe offers a wide variety of underwater marine life and a pristine and beautiful reef system.

Close to Baobab Beach Villa, a profesional PADI divecenter is located in walkinbg distance.

Maziwe Island

Make sure to visit the underwater wonderland of Maziwe Private Marine Reserve. Create a surreal day in the middle of the Indian Ocean complete with shaded parasols, picnic lunch and ice cold refreshments. The well preserved coral and frequent turtle sightings will stand out in your memories for decades to come, a memory so surreal it may seem like a dream.
