Mozambique Cities Towns Attractions:Pemba Town Tour Business Centers

Font size:

Pemba is a cosmopolitan, coastal town in Mozambique frequented by a range of people from wealthy businessmen to backpackers. Looking down from the town over rolling hills, a mix of modern buildings and wooden huts set amongst thick forests of baobab trees, the view of this beautiful blue bay is not easily forgotten.

Local tradition says that if all the ships in the world anchored within Pemba's 13,000 hectares of land-locked water there would still be room for more ships.

The most popular destination here is Wimbe Beach where a resort called Complexo Nautilus has thatched seaside bungalows, a restaurant and an excellent diving and watersports operation.

Diving on the coral reefs is superb and there are also boat trips on offer. The fabulous Pemba Beach Hotel & Spa also recently opened about 1km from the Nautilus.

Don't miss a visit to the market, which is nearly 2 km long and has thousands of stalls selling everything from spices to bicycle spares. Pemba being the most important centre in northern Mozambique, there are banks, patisseries, supermarkets and restaurants.

Most of the visitors to Pemba fly in to the local airport, or arrive overland from Malawi.
