Misali Island

Surrounded by crystal waters and stunning coral reefs, Misali Island offers some of the best diving in East Africa, while snorkelling is spectacular and easily reached from the beach. Around the island, nesting turtles favor beaches on the western side, while on the northeast coast is Baobab Beach, with fine sand and a small ranger center (although information here is limited).This one of the busiest spot in Pemba Island, offering the best adventure activities with less people, to give you full enjoyment of the destination. The island is part of the Pemba Channel Conservation Area, which covers Pemba’s entire west coast. All divers, snorkellers and beachgoers here must pay the admission fee. There are no permanent settlements, though the island is in active use by local fishermen, and camping is not permitted for tourists. Inland from the beaches are caves, believed to be inhabited by the spirits of ancestors. You can get to Misali Island by arranging a boat from Wesha, but it’s easier, and not much more expensive, to arrange excursions here to explore this beautiful area. To arrange a wonderful excursion here, kindly get in touch with our sales team and have the best of Misali Island arranged for you as a package with all inclusive, and you get yourself going, explore this amazing destination.
