Cond? Nast Traveler - Small wonder

Scorchingly close to the equator, Zanzibar receives such intense rays that smart travelers opt for sporty sunscreens because of their staying power (see below). Those in the know also apply lotions liberally before heading to the island's legendary east coast beaches. Since most hotels are strung along the western shore, you can burn even en route.
