CHRISTMAS IN EAST AFRICA

The warm and sunny weather is a big draw for travelers who want to escape the cold and snowy winters of the North. The eastern coast of Africa also has some of the most stunning beaches in the world. Although the local populations of Zanzibar, Dar es salaam, Mombasa, Lamu and Malindi, to name are few, are predominantly muslim, many hotels and resorts offer traditional Christmas celebrations.  It’s not unusual to see a brightly lit Christmas tree amongst the swaying palm trees on the beach.

There is so much to explore in all of these places; things like the old forts, museums, their markets, the narrow streets in Zanzibar and the mangrove forests of Lamu.  Enjoy the warm waters of the Indian Ocean from a leisurely swim to deep-sea fishing and water sports like scuba diving, sailing and parasailing.  Take in the rich, historical local cultures and partake in local flavours like pilau, biryani, Kuku Na Nazi and Ugali.

Come and enjoy the sights, sounds and tastes of the coast of East Africa during this upcoming holiday season.  Let us help you make this holiday season one to remember.
