THE CITY OF ZANZIBAR AS FER BACK AND PRESENT
Zanzibar City, Tanzania-From Arab merchants to Portuguese explorers to Omani ivory-sellers and British missionaries, Zanzibar has had more than its share of visitors over the years. Now, with new direct flights to Nairobi, Kampala and Kigali, as well as several European countries, visitors are flocking to the island like never before. It's no longer spices and slaves they are coming for, but sun and sand.
Before being united with mainland Tanganyika in 1971, Zanzibar - for centuries the most important trading hub on the East African coast - fell under the rule of a succession of foreign powers. When we are greeted at the airport by soldiers in uniforms bearing the name, "The Revolutionary Government of Zanzibar", we suspect that perhaps the archipelago has changed hands again. No, we're told, there hasn't been a coup, and the Revolutionary Government is just the island's misleadingly named semi-autonomous administration.
We immediately head to the north of the island to for some rest and relaxation. The beach at Kendwa could hardly be closer to perfect. Clean, fine, white sand rolls into the infinite green of the Indian Ocean and the red sun in the cloudless sky completes the postcard setting.
With its sea-level altitude, Zanzibar is hotter than mainland East Africa and temperatures touch 30C degrees all year round. A dip in the mild ocean waves is the perfect antidote to the midday heat. We pass the days there reading, sleeping, lying in the shade.
Our binges of inactivity are interposed with spells of beach volleyball with other tourists. The games get very competitive, in spite of everybody's lack of skill, and it's only when a serious clash of heads nearly takes my friend's teeth out that everyone decides it's best left to the professionals. While everybody else goes back to the books, I occupy myself with a 20-a-side game of barefoot soccer with the locals.
We depart Kendwa three days later with feet bruised, skin burnt, mouths bloodied and minds thoroughly relaxed.
The next stop is Stone Town, Zanzibar City's historic centre. The diversity of cultural influences is immediately seen in the odd blend of Islamic and British colonial architecture that lines the maze of winding lanes where children play outside the shops their fathers make a living from.
"Hello my friend, where are you from?", is a line tourists visiting Zanzibar will soon grow used to. Sadly, it's not a spontaneous outburst of hospitality but the opening salvo in the well-rehearsed sales pitch of the dozens of touts who approach tourists in Stone Town and try, with varying degrees of persistence, to sell them their services.
