Zanzibar

Tanzania

beach

Zanzibar is a world unto itself. The spice island's Stone Town is a labyrinth of narrow alleys, carved wooden doors, and centuries of Swahili, Arab, and Portuguese history. Beyond the town, pristine beaches stretch for miles, turquoise lagoons invite you to swim with dolphins and turtles, and sunset dhow cruises offer the most romantic evenings imaginable.
