Diving Pemba
Pemba offers spectacular diving at all levels, from introductory dives for those with no experience to wall and drift diving for more advanced divers. A visit to the remote Lazarus Bank is a once in a lifetime experience for the most adventurous. PADI courses are also available. Apart from sensational corals and plentiful tropical fish, the Pemba area is home to several species of turtle, dolphins, and seasonally migrating humpback whales. Snorkelling sites abound both off the main beaches and across the bay at Ponto Saide Ali. Corals often lie in shallow water and visibility can be outstanding, offering almost a dive experience from the surface. Water temperatures are always comfortable.
