About Paje
Paje is a laid-back village on Zanzibar's east coast, world-renowned as one of Africa's best kitesurfing spots. The long shallow lagoon, consistent trade winds, and bohemian beach vibe make it irresistible. Even non-kiters love the stunning tidal flats and seaweed farms.

Travel Tips
The trade winds blow strongest June–September. The east coast road can be rough in places — a 4×4 is recommended in the rainy season.
