Tide, calm and kitesurfing

Bwejuu is quieter than neighbouring Paje: see Paje beach and kitesurfing in Paje for the schools. Further north, the Michamvi Kae peninsula is known for its beach bars at sunset; there are few places to sleep, so check beach access by tide. At low tide the sea recedes several hundred metres: the hotel pool then becomes most of your swimming. Read tides and swimming in Zanzibar.
