Jimma Travel Guide
Ethiopia
Jimma is a city in south-western Ethiopia with a population of 128,306. It is inland, away from the country’s coastline, so it is best approached as a city destination rather than a beach base.
The city is served by Jimma Airport (JIM), making air travel the most direct option for visitors arriving from elsewhere. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Jimma.
