Affiliate Disclosure

In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and testimonials, Beyond the Coast discloses that this website participates in various affiliate marketing programs. This means we may earn a commission on qualifying purchases or bookings made through links on this site, at no additional cost to you.

Affiliate Programs We Participate In

Beyond the Coast is a participant in affiliate programs including, but not limited to: Travelpayouts, AWIN, CJ Affiliate (including Booking.com), Viator, and GetYourGuide. As we grow, we may join additional affiliate programs relevant to travel planning, and this list will be updated accordingly.

How This Works

When you click an affiliate link on Beyond the Coast and make a booking or purchase, the retailer or service provider may pay us a small commission. This is tracked through a cookie placed in your browser at the time of the click, which typically remains active for a limited period (commonly 24 hours to 30 days, depending on the program).

Our Editorial Standards

We only recommend hotels, tours, and experiences that we believe genuinely add value for readers planning trips to Zanzibar, the Dominican Republic, and Egypt. Whether a link is monetized has no influence on our editorial opinions, ratings, or recommendations. Any sponsored content, if it ever appears on this site, will be clearly labeled as such.

Why We Do This

Affiliate commissions help support the research, travel, and time that goes into creating detailed, honest travel guides, and allow us to keep our content free for readers.
