Best Time To Visit

The Best Time to Visit Pemba is during the dry season, from May to October. This period offers pleasant weather with cooler temperatures, clear skies, and lower humidity, making it ideal for outdoor activities like diving, snorkeling, and exploring the island’s natural beauty. The waters are calmer, providing optimal conditions for marine adventures. November to April marks the rainy season, with occasional tropical storms, but it can still be a good time for fewer crowds and lush landscapes. For ideal conditions and a more vibrant experience, visiting between May and October is recommended.
