Kendwa Beach offers snorkeling opportunities and dhow boat trips along the picturesque coast. Low tidal activity makes this secluded spot good for swimming, and it's also known for shelling. Some beach bungalows and beach bars provide basic amenities; rastafarian full moon parties are organized by a local hotel. The beach faces west, which makes it a good spot for sunsets.

  • The place is magical and spotless! Not sure how but the beach is extremely clean. The turquoise waters and pearl white sand along with the fluffy clouds simply takes your breath away. Many water sport activities to choose from including Sky Diving, Snorkeling, Jet skiing, Sunset Dhow tours etc. A perfect honeymoon destination too with a wide choice of restaurants to choose from. Must visit if you are in Zanzibar.
  • Very beautiful beach with white sand and turquoise water, low tides are not noticeable much meaning you can swim all day long! Had to give 4 stars because of the hustlers trying to sell you things all the time. Within a short walk, you'll be easily harassed by 10-20 guys. That was absolutely exhausting to avoid them and refusing all the time, it's worst part about Zanzibar.
