Unlike the bustling scenes of its more famous neighbour, Pemba remains a well-kept secret. It is the perfect demo of a haven of tranquillity in the spice-scented archipelago. The island’s landscapes tell a story of fertile hills decked with clove and mango orchards, a stark contrast to Zanzibar's sandy shores. Traditional dhows grace the coastline, reflecting the island's strong maritime heritage, while the rhythm of fishing piles seamlessly onto Pemba's culture.
Enriched by centuries of history, Pemba's culture bears the imprints of both Arab traders from Oman and its indigenous inhabitants. The island's shores are graced with well-preserved ruins like Qanbalu, a Muslim settlement dating back to the eighth century.
