Jozani Forest Overview

Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park, located on the island of Zanzibar in Tanzania, is the island's only national park and a crucial conservation area. Spanning approximately 50 square kilometers, the park is known for its rich biodiversity, particularly its coastal forests and mangroves. The park is most famous for being home to the endangered Zanzibar red colobus monkey, a species found nowhere else in the world. Visitors can often spot these playful primates leaping through the trees, making it a highlight of the park.

In addition to the red colobus, Jozani Chwaka Bay hosts other wildlife, including bushbabies, duikers, and various bird species. The park's mangrove forests are vital for protecting the coastline from erosion and provide a habitat for numerous marine species, including crabs and fish. The park offers guided walking tours through its forest trails, where visitors can learn about the unique flora and fauna, as well as the local conservation efforts. The blend of forest, mangroves, and coastal ecosystems makes Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park a must-visit destination for nature lovers exploring Zanzibar. It's a serene escape that offers a glimpse into the island’s natural heritage.
