Stone Town – the old half of the capital, Zanzibar City – is the cultural epicentre of the island, a labyrinth of alleyways, crumbling Arabian architecture and sad echoes of slavery. The rest of the island is ringed by holiday resorts, the fanciest of which are in the northwest around the town of Nungwi.
On the opposite side of the island, life is humble and more rural – visitors can experience Zanzibar at a gentle pace. In the fishing villages of Jambiani, Paje and Bwejuu on the southeast coast, the Swahili mantra of pole, pole (slowly, slowly) still rings true.
Once restrictions had eased after the Covid-19 lockdown in 2020, documentary photographer Jac Kritzinger travelled to Zanzibar and spent some time under moody tropical skies.
