About
About Pemba.
Pemba is Zanzibar's green and secret sister — hillier, wilder and far less travelled than Unguja. Clove plantations scent the air across its ridges, the Ngezi rainforest hides flying foxes and rare birds, and mangrove channels thread between tiny islets. There are no crowds here, and that is precisely the point. Beneath the surface, Pemba is one of the great diving destinations of the Indian Ocean. The Pemba Channel drops away into dramatic walls and coral gardens of astonishing health and colour, drawing serious divers and anyone in search of reefs the rest of the world hasn't found yet. Above the water the pace is gentle and restorative — a place for wellness, seclusion and genuine quiet. For travellers who want the archipelago at its most private and unspoiled, Pemba is the answer.
