Destination overview
Why visit Pemba Island
Pemba Island is a quieter, greener island north of Zanzibar, known for coral reefs, diving, mangroves, clove plantations and romantic barefoot-luxury beach escapes. Pemba is slower and more secluded than Zanzibar, with lush vegetation, deep channels, traditional villages and a strong sense of privacy.
The destination’s strongest attractions include Secluded beaches and island retreats, Diving and snorkelling around coral reefs, Mangrove channels and dhow-style coastal scenery, Clove and spice plantation heritage, and Romantic honeymoon atmosphere. Travellers can experience Beach relaxation and private-island style stays, Diving, snorkelling or reef excursions where conditions allow, Sunset dhow or boat excursions, and Spa, honeymoon and slow-travel planning, with the programme shaped around the season, lodge location, access route and client pace.
For FIT design, Pemba Island works best as a 4-night component within a tailor-made Tanzania itinerary. It combines naturally with Serengeti National Park, Dar es Salaam, Zanzibar, and Ngorongoro Crater. The focus is marine and coastal rather than big game, with reef fish, seabirds, mangrove ecosystems and seasonal ocean life depending on activities booked.
