Elegantly lying 5 miles off Zanzibar Stone Town, 30 minutes boat drive, Bawe Tropical Island is an island not bigger than a football pitch. A beautiful island that takes the breath away; acres of lush, sexy paradise haven so skillfully done that you will think it all happened naturally.
Arrival at Bawe is something truly unforgettable; a spectacular private island, a haven of peace and silence, and cut off from the maddening outside world.
This lost corner of the world offers a very elementary place with no air conditioning; simplicity, anonymity and freedom are the true elements of Bawe Tropical Island.
Bawe Tropical Island is ideal for those looking to escape a hectic lifestyle. The island possesses all the alluring dreams of isolation, of remoteness, of getting away from it all…
There are many things that you cannot find on the island; these things serve no purpose; no television, no shoes, no news… For those who are seeking seclusion, as far as possible, from overcrowded schedules, no other paradise is more enchanting, where refinement is combined with so much poetry and imagination.
Dreamers will lie away on the beach or by the fresh water swimming pool, basking in the sun, without a care in the world…
Just remove your shoes, as is custom, and accompany it with a kikoi wearing… There are no dress codes here; the only trend is to wander barefoot. Going barefoot returns us to a state of childhood and freedom.
