The Wind
The wind blows at Paje during two different seasons. The first one, from mid-Decemberr till mid February, has a side-shore wind that comes from North-East. The second one, from mid/end June till mid September, has a side-shore wind coming from South-East.
The wind is very regular, between 15 and 20 knots, with from time to time peaks that can reach 25-30 knots.
Although Paje is very regularly swept by the wind, it happens that it falls for two or three days, once or twice a month, to better come back afterwards. But not a problem at all, if this happens during your stay, Zanzibar offers incredible attractions. And if you have wind everyday, you will anyway want a day « without » to enjoy all that surrounds you...
