For vast expanses of white sand, the east coast of Africa is incomparable. Here you can feel truly at peace in a place which puts your spirit at rest. Make friends with the local fishermen and they may even sail you to a private beach where you can have freshly cooked lobster under the stars. For the more active this is one of the best beaches in the world for kite surfing. On land there are monkeys, while in the sea fish swim around coral reefs.
