Enjoy uncrowded Surf in Paradise
Zanzibar’s surf spots are still a well kept secret and the potential of the waves would surprise most surfers. When planning a surfing holiday in Zanzibar you will find turquoise warm crystal clear water and a fun wave along the barrier reef, along with a great lifestyle and many other water sport activtities to choose from.
During your time on the island you will be able to discover the best surf spots and explore Zanzibar’s uncrowded waves. Depending on your level, there are several spots to choose from and there are many more waiting to be found. Our camps are designed for both beginners and advanced sufers and trips can be individually adapted to your needs.
The surf season in Zanzibar is from mid-December to mid-March and then again from early June to end of October. The waves are fairly constant for beginners (waist high) and ideal for first-timers and offer a great training ground for intermediates.
After stormy days and with the right swell and wind direction also experienced surfers get their game on. You won’t find crowded surf spots anywhere on the island since the sport is still quite new to Zanzibar. A good selection of various boards is available for rent and it is not necessary to bring your own gear. Zanzibar waves are also great for longboarding and stand up paddle surfers.
The climate in Zanzibar is year around tropical with an average temperature of 28° celcius in winter and 31° in summer. The water temperature is about 27 ° celsius all year long and a wetsuit is definitely not needed.
