Saadani National Park is the perfect union of beach and bush. Located just 70 km north of Bagamoyo and easily accessible by paved road from Dar es Salaam, Saadani is a wonderful day-trip from the beach resorts scattered along Tanzania's northern coast. The only wildlife sanctuary in East Africa to boast an Indian Ocean beachfront, it possesses all the attributes that make Tanzania's tropical coastline and islands so popular with European sun-worshippers.

The Wami River which passes through Saadani National Park and empties into the Indian Ocean hosts a large population of hippos, crocodiles, flamingos and many large bird species. Elephants are often viewed bathing and playing on Saadani's beach specially in the early hours of the morning. The elephant population frolics in the sands and sometimes ventures into the crashing surf; this alone makes Saadani worth visiting.
