About Tanga

Tanga is Tanzania's third-largest city and a relaxed Indian Ocean port with a rich history as the German colonial capital of East Africa, evident in its fine collection of Wilhelmine-era buildings in the old town. The city sits at the mouth of a deep natural harbour surrounded by mangroves, and within easy reach lie the Amboni Caves, Tongoni Ruins, Toten Island marine reserve, and Pangani — making Tanga an excellent base for cultural and coastal exploration in northern Tanzania.
