Dar-es-salaamCoco Beach at Oyster Bay is a popular beach and a good place for swimming. The Yacht Club at Msasani Peninsula has a private beach. Although the club is for members only it is possible to get temporary membership and it has a good family atmosphere. North and south of the city there are more beaches. The beaches north of the city are some 25 km away in Kunduchi. Shuttle buses to the beach hotels at Kunduchi leave from outside the New Africa Hotel at 9.00, 12.00, 14.00, and 17.00 on weekdays and every other hour between 9.00 and 17.00 at weekends. Return fare is about $10. The unspoilt beaches of the south coast are reached by taking the Kivukoni ferry from the fish market to Kigamboni and a dala-dala bus from there. The beaches here are pretty unspoilt. They include Mikadi, Barcuda, Kipepeo, South Beach and Kim Beach (Geza Ulole).
