Zanzibar Tourist Arrivals Up 5% in February

Zanzibar sees a nearly five percent rise in international tourists for February 2026, targeting one million annual visitors via new markets and services. Spice island beaches, Stone Town heritage, and marine safaris draw Europeans, Americans, and Asians. Expansions include direct flights, luxury eco-lodges, and adventure packages like diving and safaris. Practical advice: Book ferries to Prison Island, sample seafood at Forodhani Night Market, and visit during low season for deals.
