cycling in pemba

by rayston

The northern forest and getting there on a bicycle. Cycle to and then through the forest, then reach a fantastic white powdery sand beach that squeeks when you walk on it. The sillhouetted fruitbats in Wete flying from palm to palm as the sun went down.The secret beaches we found after cycling.The crowded and good-natured Daladala rides around the island. Scary-fast but quite an adventure (you can hail them on any road and even put your bike on the roof).
