Dress Code for Kendwa

Question

Hello. Me and my fiancé are heading to Zanzibar in September. We’re well aware of how we need to dress in Stone Town. Is it just as strict in Kendwa? I know that while on the beach, my fiancé can wear a bikini but if going to a restaurant or into the village, does she still have to cover her knees and shoulders and elbows or is it still going to be viewed as offensive. She’s just trying to put together some outfits for the trip and wants to make sure everything is appropriate. Thanks for your help!

  1. Kendwa and Nungwi are quite relaxed regarding dress code. Having said that best buy one of the beautiful colorful sarongs that are available everywhere and bring a scarf for your shoulders which have the additional benefit of protecting you from the mosquitoes after sunset.
