Rooms and places to stay in Paje
Paje is a wide white beach on the south-east coast and the kitesurfing centre of Zanzibar. A shallow lagoon inside the reef and steady trade winds make it one of the best places to learn in East Africa.
The village has cafés, places to eat and kite schools along the beach, with a relaxed, sociable feel. The tide goes far out, so swimming is best around high water.
Rooms in Paje suit kitesurfers, people working remotely and anyone after a lively beach with a laid-back crowd.
