Opening hours are not held for this venue.
Pemba is hillier and greener than Zanzibar and receives more rain, with fewer visitors, so those who want a quieter trip tend to head there. Taarab music, with orchestras and sung poetry, originated on the Swahili coast and remains popular on both islands. The Zanzibar red colobus monkey is found only on Zanzibar, and the Pemba flying fox only on Pemba.
