In the far north of Mozambique lies Pemba Bay, the third largest bay in the world and the heart of Pemba city. Thanks to the modern port, the international airport, world-class hotels and restaurants, good roads, the charm of the old city and fantastic diving and fishing, Pemba is tourist heaven. In the city centre there's an authentic local market or souk, where arts, crafts and traditional silverware is on offer, a bargain hunter's delight! And of course there are the fabulous beaches. To the south in the Quirimbas Archipelago are the tiny island resorts of Matemo and Medjumbe, offering the ultimate tropical island getaway - intimate, personal, romantic and very private. You can only get there by boat.
