Ngezi Rain Forest
Pemba Island is a mosaic of forest, swamps, mangroves and lagoons is scattered with ruined mosques and tombs, now reclaimed by the forest. The gezi Peninsula is the northernmost point on Pemba. Much of the area is taken up by the Ngezi Forest, which is the last remains of a huge tract of indigenous forest which used to cover most of Pemba. Ngezi is home to the Pemba Flying Fox, a bat endemic to the island. The forest itself is a protected area and there is an information centre, a nature trail and a small entrance fee. 

Misali Marine Park
Misali is surrounded by coral reef that descend steeply with hard corals up to 64 meters deep, making an island a preferred spot for diving. About 66% of the coral genera known in Tanzania are found at Misali Island together with over 350 fish species from 43 families. Highly threatened Green and Hawksbill sea turtles nests at Mpapaini and Mbuyuni beaches, with a minimum of 20 nests annually. The island supports a variety of indigenous and migratory sea bird species. Misali is an island southwest of Pemba Island. It is the perfect destination for nature lovers because it is a sanctuary for sea birds and turtles. The nesting turtles and breeding sea birds are found on the western side of Misali Island. 

The rainy season comes mostly in April and May with the strongest SE winds in June. As one progresses from July through September the periods of strong wind decrease and those of calm increase. Our yearly scuba divers from all over the world come down to Mombasa or Zanzibar Island and are then transferred all the way to Pemba Island to explore the reefs and ocean marine life.    Click here to find hotels

Diving in Pemba Island
Pemba is famous for its superb night diving where a motley crew of nudibrachs, pleurobranchs, squid, mantis shrimps and other strange life-forms come out of hiding.

Spectacular underwater sights, stunning blue-water drop-offs, awe-inspiring hard and soft coral gardens, magnificent scenery, a sparkling clear blue sea - everything combines to ensure the diving holiday of a lifetime.
