Underwater suite

The main deck of the underwater suite
The main deck features a cozy lounge area with seating, where meals are also served. From here, guests can embark on diving and snorkeling excursions, and there is an open-air rain shower.

The sun deck of the underwater suite
A staircase leads to the upper deck with a sunbathing area. The perfect place to sunbathe and relax. At night, there is probably no better place on Pemba to enjoy the starry sky without any lights in the vicinity, right in the middle of the ocean and all to yourself.

The underwater bedroom
Approximately 10 meters below the main deck is the underwater bedroom, which is furnished like a comfortable hotel room with a double bed. The 360-degree panoramic windows can be illuminated with pleasant blue LED lighting on request, attracting many curious nocturnal fish and colorful schools of fish. It is not uncommon for an octopus or starfish to make itself comfortable on the window.

Like a night dive, but comfortably in your bedroom, the night underwater is an experience that cannot be found anywhere else in the world.

Breathtaking diving

The pristine coral reefs surrounding the entire island make Pemba one of the best diving spots in the world. Pemba, Tanzania is the perfect place to start your diving adventure with one of the healthiest coral reefs in the Indian Ocean, an average water temperature of 26°C, and the best visibility in East Africa of 30-40 meters almost every day!

The dive sites around Pemba

Some of the dive sites around Pemba are spectacular in every way. The deep Pemba Channel rises dramatically to the west coast of the island in nearly vertical walls along many reefs. Diving in this region is characterized by exceptionally clear, blue water and vibrantly healthy shallow reefs. Hard and soft coral gardens support the proliferation of reefs, pelagic fish, and other marine life.

Diving for nature conservation

Every morning before breakfast in the crystal-clear tropical water

Our house reef, located directly in front of the resort, is part of the Kwanini Conservation Area. Hundreds of species of marine life and crystal-clear tropical waters make this a must-see for all nature lovers. Our boat captain and snorkeling guide will accompany you and show you all of our usual reef inhabitants before breakfast. The best time of day. All proceeds are donated to the local Marine Conservation Area Committee and rangers. Additional donations are very welcome and appreciated. Our conservation boxes are located in the dive center and main lounge area.

island excursions

Pemba tour: This excursion takes you around the island of Pemba and visits the ancient Ngezi rainforest, the spice farm, and other interesting places. Choose what you want to include in your safari and how much time you want to spend. If you do everything, you will need a good 8 hours starting at 8:30 a.m.

Into the sunset: In Ngalawa is the traditional sailing ship used by fishermen on the island. At around 5:00 p.m., you leave the beach and sail along the coast over the reefs to enjoy the sunset, the thrill of sailing, and a bottle of sparkling wine.

Sandbank experience

At low tide, a sandbank emerges, allowing you to walk on the purest white coral sand. The perfect black to relax, surrounded by azure blue water. The excursion is highly dependent on the tides, currents, and weather conditions and is not always possible. This requires some planning between you and the resort management. A box of fruit and refreshments will be provided. This is a 10-minute boat ride from the resort at the northernmost point of Pemba Island.
