Description

Nestled within Jozani–Chwaka Bay National Park—the only national park in Zanzibar—Jozani Forest is a lush paradise of mangroves, tropical woodlands, and wetlands teeming with life. Located in the southern part of the island, this biodiverse sanctuary feels like stepping into another world, where sunlight filters through ancient mahogany trees and the sounds of nature echo all around you. Jozani is most famous as the only place on Earth where you can see the rare red colobus monkey, a playful and curious species found nowhere else. Watching them leap gracefully from branch to branch is an unforgettable experience—and sightings are guaranteed. Accompanied by a knowledgeable park ranger, you’ll explore winding forest trails while spotting other incredible wildlife, including Sykes monkeys, bush babies, chameleons, Ader’s duiker, and even the shy Zanzibar leopard hyrax. The forest is also home to over 160 species of birds and 50 species of butterflies, making it a haven for nature lovers and photographers alike. A visit to Jozani isn’t just a walk through the forest—it’s a journey into the wild heart of Zanzibar, where every rustle and birdsong tells a story of this island’s natural heritage.
