Mikindani is an important port town in the Lindi District of southern Tanzania, located on the Indian Ocean coast about 60 kilometers from the capital city of Lindi. As Tanzania's southernmost deep-water port, the port of Mikindani serves as a regional trading hub, exporting mainly cashew nuts, timber and minerals.
Located at 10 degrees south latitude, Mikindani has a savannah climate with distinct dry and rainy seasons. The town is surrounded by mangrove swamps and coconut groves, and has an unspoiled beach landscape, making it a potential beach destination.
As the Tanzanian government promotes economic development in the south, the port of Mijindani is being expanded and upgraded to increase container handling capacity in the future. The town's economy is based on fishing, agriculture and port logistics, and in recent years a small tourism industry has begun to develop.
The local population is predominantly Makonde and retains traditional wood carving skills. Mijindani is connected by road to the cities of Lindi and Mtwara, and has no airport; the nearest international airport is in Dar es Salaam.
