The Liveaboard Experience Pemba Island, Tanzania
67'MV Kisiwani
The Pemba channel (see map) separates Shimoni in Kenya from Pemba Island
which is the northern island of Zanzibar. The channel is 20 miles wide and up
to 6500 ft deep. The channel runs deep until it approaches the Pemba coastline
and them begins a dramatic rise to create sheer wall off the coast. The western
side is the lee side (where the diving is conducted) . Pemba is approximately
33 miles in length.
Diving off tropical Pemba is among the most spectacular to be found in
East Africa. It is characterized by dramatic clear, blue-water drop-offs
along with pristine shallow reefs. Hard and soft corals gardens are alive
with schools of pelagic marine life, mantas, turtles, coral and fish.
In addition to 3-4 dives daily, you will have the opportunity to explore
several truly native island villages, virtually untouched by modern civilization.
