Pemba Diving

Steep drop-offs and strong currents — Pemba's reefs are for the more experienced diver.

Weather dependent

Pemba's diving is generally considered more suited to intermediate and advanced divers than Unguja's — the channel between the islands drops away steeply, producing dramatic wall dives, and currents can run strong. In exchange, the reefs see far fewer visitors.

Safety notes

Currents can be strong — this is generally better suited to divers with some experience; confirm your level with the operator honestly.
