Infrastructure development is one of the most important drivers of property value appreciation in Zanzibar. Several major projects are reshaping the island's connectivity and opening new investment corridors.
Abeid Amani Karume International Airport Expansion
The ongoing airport expansion increases passenger capacity and supports direct international flights from new markets, directly benefiting tourism and accommodation demand.
Road Improvements
Key road corridors connecting Stone Town to the east and north coasts are being upgraded, reducing travel times and making previously remote coastal areas more accessible for development.
Fumba Peninsula Marina
The Fumba Peninsula development includes a modern marina, creating a new epicentre for luxury waterfront living and attracting high-net-worth buyers.
Investment Implications
Infrastructure improvements tend to precede property appreciation. Areas benefiting from new road access, airport connectivity, or marina development offer compelling investment timing for informed buyers.
