Island life – Greg

Would you like to sleep in an underwater bedroom and look at colourful fish and
octopuses? Well, book a room at Manta Resort on Pemba Island, Tanzania.
I spent a week there. I didn’t book the underwater room, but I had a wonderful time!
5 I had a beautiful view of the Indian Ocean from my bedroom. I love that Wi-Fi access is only
available in the main area because it makes people enjoy this beautiful place. There are
lots of things to do: going to the beach, diving, snorkelling and going on trips around the
island.
