CONTINENTAL resort |
|
|
No place for claustrophobia - this is the first remote and attractive sandy beach coastline on the Northern coast of Tanzania about 30 South of Tanga. Although the beach seems to be isolated, the very high occupancy of the resort during the high season makes the spot anything but lonely. Note, whoever takes on this unique opportunity to make money in paradise, should know that he or she will be pretty busy.

Going North or South along the coast, you have to travel along a well maintained gravel road. To Tanga which is the next big town it will take less than one hour's drive. |

An extra entrance which forms a part of the property goes down from the main road for a couple of hundred meters through the coastal bush till you reach the pictured entrance of "Continental drift" - karibu! |
