The Private Island

All you need to do is fly to the international airport at Dar es Salaam, Tanzania’s capital city, and we’ll either fly you directly to the Island by helicopter or arrange a charter flight for you to nearby Mafia Island, where we’ll meet you by boat.

“Ten years ago it started with a dream, a fanciful ambition to find a small, remote, uninhabited Tropical Island off the coast of East Africa with exquisite white beaches and turquoise seas. We wanted to find something utterly private and natural, where sea turtles nest and where you can bathe safely in blue heaven. said Pierre Delvaux, Managing Director, Thanda Tanzania Ltd.

«That dream, that fanciful ambition is Thanda Island. We found it, and we can hardly believe that such a place still exists: a perfect Indian Ocean Island within a protected marine reserve, where the only trace of human beings is the occasional Arab fishing dhow passing by.» said Pierre Delvaux, Managing Director, Thanda Tanzania Ltd.

Dine on the beach or on an Arab dhow, have a massage on the beach or take a sunset cruise around your own private island; head out on a big game fishing adventure or bathe in the warm tropical waters where we will serve you a delectable picnic on a sandbank in the sea.
