Sandbank Experience

The signature experience of Pemba — an unforgettable day on a private dhow heading out into the Indian Ocean.

Sail aboard a traditional dhow towards a remote sandbank: a strip of pure white sand surrounded by crystal-clear, shallow water in the middle of the ocean. With nothing but turquoise water as far as the eye can see, this is pure escapism.

Guests can rest under the sun, snorkel over vibrant coral, swim in the warm, transparent lagoon, and savour a fresh seafood lunch prepared on site. A rare moment of barefoot luxury and absolute serenity.
