Breezes Beach / Zanzibar kitesurf, wingfoil and windsurf spot

Tanzania · Mkoa wa Unguja Kusini

-6.19 | 39.54

Overview

Breezes Beach is a kitesurfing spot located on the southeast coast of Zanzibar, Tanzania. This beach faces east onto the Indian Ocean and fully benefits from the southeast trade winds during the Kusi season (June to October). The offshore coral reef creates a vast reef flat that is exposed at low tide, offering exceptional flat water conditions for kitesurfing. The tide is essential here: at low tide, the water retreats several hundred meters, creating an immense flat playground. The spot is suited to beginners and intermediates.
