For centuries it served as an important Arab, Persian, and Swahili trading center, particularly for cloves, which were introduced during the nineteenth century under the Sultanate of Oman. Its fertile hills remain covered with clove plantations, tropical forests, and mangrove wetlands that protect the coastline. The surrounding marine ecosystem is among the richest in the western Indian Ocean, featuring vibrant coral reefs, seagrass meadows, and crystal clear waters inhabited by more than 350 fish species, sea turtles, dolphins, octopuses, and colorful marine invertebrates. On land, the islands support Pemba flying foxes, monkeys, endemic birds, butterflies, and diverse tropical vegetation. Pristine white sand beaches, turquoise lagoons, and lush coastal landscapes create an extraordinary natural sanctuary where terrestrial and marine biodiversity thrive, making Pemba one of East Africa's finest ecotourism and diving destinations.
