Facing the warm waters of the Indian Ocean, Tanzania is one of Africa’s most picture-perfect tropical destinations. Amazing stretches of white beaches, a vibrant Swahili culture and a warm year-round climate make this East Coast country one of the most sought-after areas for international tourists longing for the exotic. Tanzania has preserved much of its native beauty through the designation of protected areas, one of which hosts Chumbe Island, a resort with a strong eco-friendly flavour. Designed with the natural environment as a foremost concern, the owners of this beautiful private island close to the Zanzibar border created the resort with the consultation of Seacology, the world’s premier island preservation charity. From the romantic low-impact bungalows to the solar panels that provide the island’s electricity, Chumbe has gone to extraordinary lengths to bring to life a unique and eco-friendly vision of an African adventure.
