African Beaches

African beaches are as varied as the enormous continent of Africa itself. Each of Africa's beach destinations offers something unique to the traveller while remaining distinctly African.

Beach holidays in South Africa alone give you a diverse choice in beach destinations. Choose between the glamorous African beaches of cosmopolitan Cape Town, the long sandy beaches of the Garden Route for safe family fun, or the crashing waves of the unspoilt KwaZulu Natal coast.

Just across the border in Mozambique are some of the best beaches in Africa. Wonderful long beaches can be found on the mainland, but for a real African island experience travel to the islands off the coast.

The islands of the Bazaruto Archipelago offer some of the world's best scuba-diving and snorkelling, whereas the fascinating history found in the Quirimbas Archipelago, Northern Mozambique, adds a sense of romantic nostalgia to your island holiday.

Of course, when it comes to idyllic island beaches, fun-filled Mauritius and the exclusive private islands of the Seychelles often come to mind, and can be combined with any African vacation.

Following an East African safari, African beaches on Kenya's coast or the exotic spice islands of Zanzibar often beckon for a relaxing beach holiday.

Although for a truly different take on African beach holidays, head to the shores of Lake Malawi for your next beach holiday.

Choosing your beach destination in Africa will not be easy, but you will not be easily disappointed.
