UPDATE: PEMBA BAY RESORT DEVELOPMENT

The Pemba Bay resort is located in the beautiful inner bay of Pemba, northern Mozambique. The resort site offers a beautiful beach, and the entire site is dotted with magnificent baobab trees. The stretch of bay in front of the resort is a proclaimed marine reserve; one of the few places where one can still encounter sea horses in their natural habitat.

The Kinahu Charters base is located inside the resort.

The completed resort will consist of a hotel and 33 four-bedroom log houses the rooms and houses all forming part of a rental pool; making it possible to own a holiday "place" which will actually produce an income stream for you right from the start. The estate will be managed on behalf of the owners by an established international hotel group.

If your preference is for ownership and sole use; we have seven log houses reserved for this ownership option. If you want to design and build your own holiday home, the estate has some 45 vacant stands, all with excellecent views, available for sale.

The target date for the hotel to commence operations, is 1 December 2007.

"It was a great pleasure to spend time on your boat. We thoroughly enjoyed the company and hospitality of Calvin, Cherece and Romano. Even though the weather was not perfect, we had an amazing time. We believe that we will try to book your boat again in the summer, and use it for fishing off St Lazarus"

"It was a charter from the top drawer. You were correct in allocating Meringue, as it was perfect for our use. The skipper, Nick, is relaxed, knowledgeable and a good fisherman. I was able to work well with him ....and we caught a lot of fish including two sailies. We let around 60% of the fish go, including the two sailies, but ate all types of fish, cooked every which way, daily. Sue the hostess was very good and so was Ramadan. Nothing was too much trouble.... The equipment was top drawer as well, which is important and we dived,used the rubber ducks and other equipment. We can start talking 2008, same time of the year.....My friends all pass their their thanks and regards for a really great charter. Happy to be a reference at any time if you need it."
