The image depicts a coastal scene in Dar es-Salaam, Tanzania, under an overcast sky. In the immediate foreground, two inverted boat hulls dominate the lower frame: a red hull with white trim lies closest on the right, and a white hull is positioned behind it to the left. Both show signs of wear. Beyond these boats, a sandy or dirt-covered beach area stretches towards a body of water, likely the Indian Ocean or an inlet of Dar es-Salaam Harbour. Numerous small, open-top boats, characteristic of fishing vessels, are scattered across the beach and partially in the shallow water. Some boats appear beached, while others are afloat. One white boat on the beach displays the faint inscription "KILA LA KHERI" on its side. On the left side of the midground, a cluster of green trees and dense foliage covers a slight elevation. Small, informal structures are interspersed among the trees and closer to the beach. Several indistinct figures are visible on the beach, with a small group congregated near a structure under the trees on the far left. In the background, across the water, the modern skyline of Dar es-Salaam is prominent, featuring multiple high-rise buildings, including a distinctive pair of twin towers. The sky is largely covered by dense, grey clouds, indicating overcast weather conditions.
