NEARBY
Pemba Beach Hotel is situated near the sleepy town of Pemba, in the
northern Mozambican province of Cabo Delgado, approximately 240km from
the border of Tanzania. It lies between Pemba Bay and the lovely Wimbe
beach.
Pemba - formerly known as Porto Amelia - is a historic town, steeped
in colonial and trading history and a gem to explore. There are local
and traditional shops, as well as an authentic local market or Souk,
where arts and crafts, as well as traditional silverware can be bought.
On one of the world’s largest inland bays, the hotel is close
to a number of breathtaking attractions. These include the beautifully
untouched Quirimbas Archipelago, a group of 32 islands, including historic
Ibo; a major trading centre in previous centuries when Africa’s
East Coast was controlled by Arabs, and later became a Portuguese colony.
Two
forts guard Ibo, one of them a magnificent example of Portuguese architecture
in the 1800s, the other reduced to a ruin. Yet Ibo itself remains a
bustling local centre, silversmiths still practicing their fine work
outside these forts to offer unique mementos of a special place in Africa.
Not all those who wander
are lost...
