View pictures from the Fanjove Island


Fanjove Island is located 20 miles off the Tanzanian coast…
… and has been inaccessible for tourists until very recently.
Only a lighthouse shows that there have been humans on the island in the past.
The island offers a beautiful white sandy beach…
… and some stunning bird and wild life.
At night you might even spot the rare coconut crab…
… which is able to climb up palms.
In 2012, an eco-lodge was set up on the island…
… with six dhow-shaped bandas, offering access to the beach…
… where you can enjoy sundowners while watching amazing sunsets.
