About this site
Matumbini Island lies off Pemba, the northern island of the Zanzibar Archipelago in Tanzania, within the Pemba Channel of the Indian Ocean. Emerald Reef sits in the waters surrounding this small island, an area known for its coral formations and channel currents. The dive is rated advanced, likely reflecting those currents running through the channel. Divers here have reported barracuda, grouper, Napoleon wrasse, and trevally around the reef.
