An evening sail on a traditional wooden dhow along Zanzibar's coastline as the sun drops into the Indian Ocean -- one of the simplest and most photographed ways to end a beach day.
Dhows have sailed the Zanzibar coast for centuries, originally for fishing and trade, now doubling as one of the easiest ways to watch the sun set over the Indian Ocean with a drink in hand.
Board the dhow directly from the beach in the late afternoon as it sets sail along the coastline.
Sail parallel to the shoreline with drinks and snacks on board as the sun sets over the water.
