A picturesque East African town is emerging as the new party hotspot for British tourists looking for sun, sand and a £1 beer.

Zanzibar, Tanzania’s stunning island paradise, has even been compared to the new party town ‘Magaluf’ by holidaymakers who can enjoy turquoise waters and nightclubs from just £6.50 pppn.

With its pristine beaches, affordable drinks and year-round tropical climate, this breathtaking island paradise has quickly gained popularity for those seeking vibrant nightlife and breathtaking natural beauty.

According to recent statistics from luxury tour operator Scott Dunn, ‘up and coming’ Zanzibar has experienced an astonishing 83% increase in bookings among its wealthy clientele.

The surge in tourism comes as popular European holiday destinations such as Lanzarote and Amsterdam crack down on rowdy behavior and ask drunk Brits to ‘stay away’.

However, there is one part of the island that is not the preserve of the wealthy and where British tourists are flocking in record numbers: the capital Zanzibar City.

One of the main attractions that draws British tourists to Zanzibar City is its unbeatable drink offerings.

According to PintPrice, not only can you get pints from £1.06, but according to Hikers Bay you can get a meal from just £3.84 at an affordable restaurant in the city.

There are also affordable prices for accommodation options, with one budget double room for two adults, found by Daily star on booking.com, worth just £13 per night – that’s a whopping £6.50 per person.

There are many bars, clubs and restaurants where Brits have partied the night away, as well as exploring historic sites such as Stone Town, the birthplace of Queen frontman Freddie Mercury.

From snorkeling in the crystal clear waters of the Indian Sea to exploring historic towns, visitors to Zanzibar are spoiled for choice when it comes to leisure activities and cultural immersion.

The country also boasts the famous Serengeti National Park – home to safaris’ ‘big five’ lions, leopards, elephants, buffalos and rhinos – as well as Africa’s highest mountain, Kilimanjaro.

Furthermore, Zanzibar’s idyllic beaches and consistently warm temperatures, which average around 30 degrees Celsius all year round, provide the perfect backdrop for unforgettable holiday experiences.

Scott Dunn advised: ‘You can enjoy a less crowded safari from November to March as this is usually the green season.

‘Rainfall turns the landscape into lush green and that is when you are most likely to see newborn animals.’

With flights on Skyscanner available for as little as £378 return, Zanzibar is poised to remain a top choice for years to come for travelers looking for an affordable yet unforgettable holiday.

Meanwhile, Brits are being warned about a little-known rule that could turn a dream Spanish holiday into a nightmare.

In Benidorm, a new rule affects the place where holidaymakers abroad spend the most time: the beach.

Time restrictions mean that if you are caught in the sea between midnight and 7am you risk being fined between €750 and €1,200 (£641.71 to £1,026.73).
