Beach for Families

The palm-lined white sand beaches and turquoise waters of Mozambique and Zanzibar provide a divine backdrop to every imaginable water sport from whale-watching to windsurfing. Madagascar’s rich pool of wildlife and family-focused lodges are a great way to add-on adventurous jungle day-trips while having a fixed base.

Whether you have specific activities in mind or you’re keen to try something new, our team of Africa specialists will have a solution.

You might want to combine aspects of our existing beach family holidays or challenge an Imagine Africa specialist to design a bespoke holiday with your family in mind.
