About

Found on Zanzibar, Alamidan Sports operates from Zanzibar Extreme Water Sports, Pwani Mchangani, Zanzibar 4212, Tanzania, on the island's north-eastern coast. Stone Town, Nungwi, Kendwa, Paje, Jambiani, Bwejuu, Kiwayu and Matemwe all lie within reach, so the venue fits into a circuit of the island's beaches. A 4.1 out of 5 average across 59 reviews gives a clear sense of how it is regarded.

Pwani Mchangani sits on the north-east coast, a stretch known for its tidal flats and quiet village feel. With 59 reviews recorded, the venue has a modest but steady base of feedback. The website at http://www.zanzibarextremewatersports.co.tz/ carries the venue's own information for anyone planning a visit.

Kiswahili is the main language of both islands, with English widely used in tourism and Arabic loanwords in everyday speech, so communication is straightforward for visitors. The long rains, masika, fall from March to May, and the short rains, vuli, in November and December, which shapes when water sports are most comfortable. Islam is the religion of the large majority, and Ramadan, Eid and Friday prayers shape the weekly rhythm, so visitors should plan around those periods. Cloves are grown on both islands, and Pemba produces much of Tanzania's clove crop.

Pwani Mchangani's position on the north-east coast puts it within reach of Nungwi and Kendwa to the north and Paje to the south. The tidal range along this stretch means the water's edge shifts through the day.
