Ras Kutani
Despite its long, colourful and sanguine history, the Tanzanian coast today offers the tourist that increasingly rare commodity - long stretches of pristine deserted beaches, warm blue seas and an opportunity to experience peace and tranquility long since swamped by overcrowding in more publicised tropical resorts. None more so than Ras Kutani, set on a crescent of white sandy beach, washed by the gentle surf of the temperate Indian Ocean. The resort is situated only 35 kilometres south of the port of Dar es Salaam but offers the perfect hideaway, far from the madding crowd.
