The Tides Lodge

The Tides Lodge is situated in the middle of the stunning Ushongo Bay just south of the historic town of Pangani. It offers a very a unique beach experience on the unspoiled Swahili coastline of Tanzania and has been rated one of the Top 6 Secret Beaches of the World by the Sunday Times travel magazine.

Comprising of only 7 cottages, 2 family houses and a suite, The Tides can offer a high level of personal service and exclusivity to its guests. The rooms are large, decorated in a fresh and simple yet luxurious manner, and cooled by the near constant breeze from the Indian Ocean, which is only a stones throw away.

The food is one of the highlights at The Tides Lodge, with fresh seafood being delivered by the local fishermen daily. The menus are fresh, imaginative and extremely tasty.

There is much to do at Tides but the best excursion is the snorkeling trip to the nearby Maziwe Island Maribe Reserve which is world class. SCUBA diving can also be arranged. There is also kayaking, beach and village walks, cultural tour of the historic trading port of Pangani and sea fishing trips. Saadani National Park is only an hour away making The Tides Lodge a great place to combine with a safari.
