The bay's azure blue waters - protected by the reef one kilometre from the shore - are ideal for swimming and snorkelling. Pongwe Beach is the ideal place to relax and enjoy Zanzibar’s distinctive, mellow pace.

You can dive into the crystal clear waters of the Indian ocean, or stretch out and soak up the sun on the beach. It is the ideal retreat for those looking for that extra special honeymoon, or a holiday with an air of exclusivity.

The resort’s beautiful gardens surround sixteen garden and beachfront Zanzibari cottages. Pongwe's consultant chef from England — who has spent time in the kitchens of the Dorchester Hotel, London; and the famous Lucas Carton, one of Paris’ finest 3 star Michelin restaurants — has advised and trained the in-house chefs, so you can be assured that the crab, king prawn, and other fine local food will be prepared and cooked to the highest of international standards.

Pongwe have their own traditional wooden long boat with which guests may gain access to deep waters before and beyond the reef. This provides the ideal opportunity to go game fishing for tuna, marlin, barracuda and king fish.

Pongwe can also organise snorkelling out at Mnemba Atoll where you can find many coral species and marine life; and at Kizimkazi where sharks, dolphins and turtles can be found. Scuba diving can be arranged whether it be a day dive or a Padi open water course.
