Top Tips
| It’s worth coming here out of architectural interest alone, and the setting beside the Forodhani Gardens and ocean is certainly alluring. |
| Expect to find an amphitheatre inside the fort, a tourist information office or two, a restaurant, and a few rows of souvenir stalls. Don’t plan on spending too much time here. |
| Combine this with a visit to the Forodhani Gardens and the Beit el-Ajaib (House of Wonders) Zanzibar National Museum. |
