We visited Lazy Lagoon after a safari, and what a place to unwind, and get the dust out of your pores.
It is a small private island lodge, and is run by Alex and Janie Fox, whose knowledge of Africa is just amazing.
You can only arrive one way, and that is by boat, and be warned you will get your feet and legs wet because you will have to wade ashore!!
When you get there a most pleasant surprise awaits because here in the back of beyond is a real Robinson Cruso island, a hidden, almost unknown gem, and speaking personally, I hope it stays that way!!
You will sleep in one of twelve bandas, set by the beach, which is actually about five miles of unspoilt white sand paradise. The bandas are well furnished, and have solar powered hot water, a large shady verandah with spacious rooms and big windows. They are constructed from palm leaf thatch in keeping with the local tradition, and with a wooden panelled interior. The verandahs are perfect for relaxing in a hammock, and watching the fishing fleet go out and come in, and there is a loft area where childrens� beds can be put.
There is room service, and the beach is right on your doorstep.
The food is impressive in its variety and choice, with all three daily meals being incredibly varied. The seafood as you would expect is abundant and very fresh.
You eat in the restaurant which along with the bar are at the tip of the island with the most glorious views of the lagoon.
There is as little or as much as you want to do, but after a safari most people will want to chill out for a few days, and the deserted beach, the beautiful clear turquoise sea can be swum in at high or low tide. Why not try snorkelling, or kayaking, or sailing, or take a dhow trip to a sand island, or a dusk cruise. Perhaps you just want to lie in the sun, and read.
Whatever you do, try to visit Bagamovo town, because it was Livingstone�s �Gateway to Africa� with a truly dark past, as it was the slave port from mainland Africa to Zanzibar. You cannot fail to be moved by the whipping tree which can still be seen in the town square, and the cemetery which bears witness to the suffering and death of the Europeans who made their lives here.
Lazy Lagoon claims to be the most exclusive beach resort in Tanzania.
This might well be fair comment, but I would say a stay of three or four nights either before or after a safari would be about right
