About this spot
An island spot off the coast of Zanzibar characterized by turquoise waters and a protective reef. The lagoon offers flat water conditions perfect for freestyle and beginners, especially during high tide.
Steady trade winds, the Kaskazi and Kusi, provide reliable sessions throughout the main seasons. Thermal effects can further enhance the wind quality.
