Kiwengwa

Zanzibar

Kiwengwa it is located on the northeast coast between the villages of Pongwe and Pwani Mchangani. It is also connected by road to Kinyasini, which lies eight kilometres to the west. Kiwengwa village is spread out along a fine, wide beach, and is the locus of Zanzibar's package-tourism industry. Hidden behind high walls in lushly planted gardens, most of the Italian-run resorts are all-inclusive, with guests seldom leaving the grounds. By contrast the village is poor and dusty, highlighting an uncomfortable lack of social and enivronmental awareness. Few resorts allow visitor access so unless you're pre-booked there's little reason to come here.
