Holidays in Matemwe

Can't sleep? Tossing and turning all night? Could be that intrepid spirit of yours! So what are you waiting for? Get up, make yourself some brekkie and book a ticket to Matemwe!

If you venture 110 kilometres of Matemwe, you'll find yourself in the significant city of Dar es Salaam.

Make sure you bring some sandwiches so you can indulge in a relaxed bite on the shore at Nungwi Beach or Kendwa Beach.

You won't have to be stuck on the highway all day to experience some nature. Just 5 kilometres out of Matemwe, Mnemba Island is a great place to enjoy some fresh air. Even more peaceful surrounds are waiting for you at Prison Island, 35 kilometres away.

Into stopping at Mapenzi Beach and Kiwengwa Beach? They're near the middle of Pwani Mchangani, 6 kilometres to the south. Alternatively, you could go to Kendwa. It's 12 kilometres to the northwest of Matemwe and known for Mnarani Natural Aquarium and Diving Poseidon.

Whether it's for shopping or to explore the sights, locals and visitors alike often take the trip to Zanzibar Town, 35 kilometres to the southwest. The Slave Market, Old Fort and the House of Wonders are close by. That said, you wouldn't want to pass up Christ Church Cathedral and Forodhani Gardens either.

To truly experience a destination is to taste the local food and drink, so prepare to munch, crunch, sip and slurp your way through Zanzibar. The only thing you need to take with you is a robust appetite!

Ugali (maize porridge) and fish are some typical ingredients in many dishes here. If you don't have a liking for them already, you might by the end of your holiday!

Ask a local for some food suggestions and ugali (cornmeal) will probably be among the first things they advise. Vitumbua (rice cakes) is another local classic you might like to try.

You probably won't need too much persuading to have a nibble of kashata ( made from coconut and ground nuts), a sweet treat that'll make you want to pack everything up and settle down here forever.

To beer or not to beer? That is the question. Of course, the answer should always be beer. While you're in this corner of the world, tusker beer is the one you want.

Intend to be here around the 26th of April? What good luck. On this date, the nation comes together to celebrate Union Day.

Time to pack your belongings and head home? Be sure to catch your last sunset in the stunning Zanzibar region before you say your last goodbye.

When it's time to pack up your bag and take off, the nearest terminal, Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR), is 110 kilometres to the south.
