Overview
A once-deserted island only reachable by boat where you have to wade ashore and be largely detached from the outside world? Where fresh fish and water arrive daily in traditional ngalawas? Where your thatched beach hut has been designed to catch the free Indian Ocean breeze? Lazy Lagoon off the coast of Dar es Salaam provides the perfect off-the-grid beach holiday, especially for those who’ve been on an action-packed safari in Tanzania.
Lazy Lagoon is the place to do nothing but snorkel all day, head out on your kayak, explore the mangroves and go sailing, lapping up the warm air and soothing scents of the Swahili coast. If you are really lucky, you may spot migrating whale sharks between October and May.
