Pemba’s secluded location and the absence of mass tourism mean that for avid divers, this is a world class location at its best. Sheer underwater drops off the Pemba Channel make for exciting viewing and sightings of deep sea species like rays and barracudas are common.
Numerous dive operators around the island offer trips to Misali Island to the south and to rarely visited smaller reefs and lagoons. Some companies also offer lodging on board their dive boats, which allows visitors to explore further off shore and experience the magic of the Indian Ocean from the water.
