Pemba, is a coastal town at the mouth of the Pemba bay, the third biggest bay in the world. It boasts some interesting buildings (especially in Baixa – the old town) and a lively atmosphere. Most visitors come for the beaches – particularly Wimbi Beach and the coral reefs. Wimbi is about 5km (3mi) east of the town of Pemba. The reef is close enough to swim to. A fledgling tourist industry is already transforming the place with bars, restaurants, diving, snorkeling, boating, fishing, etc. The Makonde workshop on the road between town and the beach has good wooden carvings for sale at good prices.
