Pemba Island
(Tanzania)
Traditionally part of the Zanzibar Archipelago, Pemba is fast becoming a unique destination in its own right.
This verdant and beautiful spice island has a rich history behind it. For centuries, Pemba’s spice fields provided the sultanate in Zanzibar with money for trade, and to this day the island is still a major spice producer in the archipelago.
However, visitors flock to Pemba’s shores, dotted with desert islands and throngs of coconut palms, for some of the best diving in the Indian Ocean. The Pemba Channel drops off steeply just off the west coast and the diverse species of marine life and coral are truly exceptional. Despite its reputation, tourism at Pemba is still in its early stages, giving you a great deal of privacy.
