Zanzibar Island Economy,

Zanzibar Island Economy, Catch of the day fishing and agriculture are the main economic activities of the local people. Zanzibar was once the world's largest producer of cloves, and her economy was based on the large incomes thus derived.

Although cloves are still a major foreign export along with coconut products and spices, tourism has been ear-marked as a major foreign exchange earner, with more visitors coming to Zanzibar each year hence the potential for tourism is relatively untapped.

Zanzibar is dedicated to sensitive tourism that benefits both visitors and the community, without losing the romance and magic that is Zanzibar.
