Workation in Bagamoyo: the essentials

Ivory and slave caravans from the interior ended their journey at Bagamoyo, and the town later served briefly as the capital of German East Africa. That history survives in crumbling coral-stone buildings, the old German boma, a Catholic mission and the older Swahili ruins at Kaole just to the south. The town sits on the Zanzibar Channel about 75 km north of Dar es Salaam, with fishing dhows on its beach, a national arts college and lodges for weekend visitors from the big city. We know of no coworking space, and long-term rentals are hard to find. Dar es Salaam's Julius Nyerere airport is the way in, about 60 km as the crow flies.
