The town of Lindi is located at the mouth of the Lukuledi river surrounded by mountains overlooking the Indian Ocean. Mtwara became a city that lost the reputation of Lindi because of having an important port and a good market in the South coast, but still the good reputation of Lindi as an excellent tourism destination continues. Although there are few people who can speak English, most people are kind and willing to help in any way that is needed by foreigners.
Lindi Mjini was an administrative center for the Southern province until 1952 when most of the administrative activities were transferred to Mtwara. The migration was due to the good condition of the port of Mtwara and the environment with good land of Mtwara. The result was poor economic development and low population growth in Lindi town. In 1971, Lindi in the city became the headquarters of administrative and business services, and finally the city began to change very slowly, where in reality the changes could not show a difference in stimulating the growth of economic activities.
