Kae Funk Sunset Beach Bar

The east coast's sunset party, reached along a boardwalk through the mangroves. On the bay side of the Michamvi peninsula, a raised boardwalk through the mangroves leads to a sandy beach of swing beds, hammocks and painted driftwood sculptures, facing west across Chwaka Bay. As the sun goes down over the bay and the dhows sail past, the DJs start and, on some evenings, acrobats and fire dancers perform. The food — grilled seafood and snacks — is secondary to the setting.
