The perfect safari holiday to Fanjove Island

A true Robinson Crusoe experience on this private tropical paradise

This private tropical paradise is truly an off-beaten-track destination situated off the coast of southern Tanzania, perfect for honeymooners wanting complete solitude.

Fanjove Island is one of Tanzania's most exclusive beach destinations and is surrounded by beautiful, powder-white, sandy beaches and the crystal clear water of the Indian Ocean.

The island offers pristine coral and it is possible walk off the beach with a snorkel and mask to see it. There are hump back whales passing by and pods of dolphins resident in the waters surrounding the island. It really is a tropical heaven.

There is one lodge on the island with 6 rooms run to a high standard so you won't see any crowds and you can be sure of an exclusive experience.

Getting there involves a short flight to Songo Songo on the mainland and then a sail in a traditional wooden dhow across to the island itself. What better way to arrive and to set the slow pace and relaxed atmosphere.
