Overview

Zanzibar and Pemba Islands, at your pace

Eight days across two islands: Zanzibar's north coast for accessible beach comfort, then a boat to Pemba for reef diving with a fraction of the visitors.

Pemba's infrastructure is simpler than Zanzibar's; this suits travellers who want quiet over convenience for the second half of the trip.
