Zanzibar cont'd

Jambiani beach was hands down the most stunning locale I visited on 2022.  Pictures don't adequately show the energy and extent of the tide in that part of the Indian Ocean.  

It was mesmerizing to behold and be standing in as it goes in and out. So different from any of the other bodies of water I've ever experienced.  Never thought I would prefer to walk on an ocean floor more than the regular beach.

Likely not a surprise that there is a great divide between local life and villa life.  The beach is public, unlike resorts in the Maldives as an example.  

What this means is an understanding of the demographics of the island, which is almost completely Muslim.  There are significant fines associated with inappropriate dress to both individuals and travel companies.
