Strolling through Bagamoyo’s narrow, unpaved streets takes you back to the mid-19th century, when the town was one of the most important settlements along the East African coast and the terminus of the trade caravan route linking Lake Tanganyika with the sea.
There are a number of accommodation facilities in Bagamoyo. You can as well decide to stay in Dar es Salaam and make a day excursions, still very possible.
Lazy Lagoon Lodge
Lazy Lagoon Lodge is set on a petite private island on the Indian Ocean accessible from the coastal town of Bagamoyo. Located at a distance of just over one mile from the shore, you can reach the island by a twenty-minute boat ride. Stay over at the private island on your Tanzania barefoot beach vacation, and you will be struck by the serene solitude and untouched beauty of the isle. On the enclave is the Lazy Lagoon Lodge, a Robinson Crusoe like accommodation off the surrounds of Bagamoyo, created in keeping with the rustic theme of ethnic Swahili design, and built entirely with eco-friendly naturally occurring materials.
Oceanic Bay Hotel & Resort
Oceanic Bay Hotel & Resort is located at the magnificent unspoiled white sandy beach of the historical town of Bagamoyo – tranquil and peaceful – opposite to the island of Zanzibar, where you can stay.
