Peponi Beach Resort

  • Book Now

The long and winding Pangani Road, through bush and traditional Tanzanian villages, leads the traveller to the peace and tranquility of Peponi. Peponi - Swahili for Paradise - is set among coconut palms, mango and cashew trees. Wild pigs steal in at night to forage for fruit, while, from the tree tops, the Bush Babies call.

Peponi is the ideal base from which to explore this region of East Africa. There is a regular bus service from Tanga and Pangani. To the west are the Usambara Mountains with their amazing views, rains forests, and the Amani Nature Reserve. The Tongoni Ruins, a 10th Century mosque with the largest collection of tombs of their type in East Africa, are just down the road.

Peponi's beach looks out onto the Pemba Channel, famous for deep sea fishing. Closer to shore you can swim and snorkel through tropical reefs with their rich and diverse abundance of marine life.  Ngalawas - a type of fishing dhow - can be hired from the local fishermen. Sail to the outer reefs and snorkel in the gardens of coral and observe the wonderful marine life such as the dazzling butterfly fish or the bold little clownfish.

At the end of the day stroll along the unspoilt and safe beaches, explore the mangroves, or just relax in the warm waters. Watch the sun set over East Africa, and listen to the Fish Eagles call.
