Bagamoyo is one of the most important trading centers on the East African Coast and a famous embarkation port for slaves from the hinterland.

It is a place of considerable significance to world history, both as an entry point for Arab and European missionaries, explorers, and traders in East and Central Africa, and in the history of the infamous slave trade.
