Four nights at a barefoot lodge on Pemba, with reefs, clove farms and a jetty bar on the lagoon.
Pemba is Zanzibar’s quiet, green neighbour: hilly, scented with cloves and ringed by coral. Hardly anyone visits, and the diving and snorkelling are among the best in East Africa.
Fundu Lagoon can only be reached by boat, which makes it feel like an island within an island. The days are for the reef, a visit to a clove plantation, a walk in the Ngezi Forest, and the jetty bar at sunset.

Prices are per person, in US dollars, and depend on the number of travellers sharing the vehicle and guide. They are sample rates for planning and will be confirmed when you enquire, as lodge and permit prices change each year. The flights depend on the airline schedule. Diving requires a certificate, and snorkelling is included.
Best time for this trip Jun to Oct, Dec to Mar
Pack light, neutral colours for game drives, a warm fleece for early mornings, a sun hat, good sunscreen and insect repellent. Binoculars are provided in the vehicle, but bring your own if you are a keen birder or photographer. Light aircraft have a soft-bag limit of 15 kg per person including hand luggage, so leave the hard suitcases at home.
