barkery
About
barkery serves Zanzibar from Gizenga St, placing it in the heart of the island's main urban area. Visitors rate it 4.8 out of 5 across 34 reviews, a strong record for a bakery on the island.
Reaching the bakery is straightforward from Stone Town, which sits close by, and travellers based in Nungwi, Kendwa, Paje, Jambiani, Bwejuu, Kiwayu or Matemwe can plan a stop while moving around Zanzibar. Gizenga St keeps the bakery within the island's commercial quarter rather than on the tourist beaches.
Zanzibar and Pemba share a tropical climate, hot and humid all year with sea breezes along the coast, so mornings are often the most comfortable time to move around. The coolest, driest months run from June to October, when the kusi wind blows from the southeast.
Stone Town, the old quarter of Zanzibar City, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site built from coral stone, and it remains the island's most recognisable landmark for first-time visitors. The Zanzibar red colobus monkey is found only on Zanzibar, and the Pemba flying fox only on Pemba, giving the archipelago wildlife found nowhere else.
