Zanzibar Activities — questions travellers ask

What water sports can you do in Zanzibar?

Kitesurfing (best in Paje and Jambiani between June–September and December–February), snorkelling, scuba diving, jet skiing, paddleboarding and traditional dhow sailing.

Where is the best kitesurfing in Zanzibar?

Paje, on the south-east coast, has a shallow flat-water lagoon and consistent trade winds, which makes it both the busiest kite spot in Zanzibar and the easiest place to learn.
