Description
Jozani Forest is best known for its red colobus monkeys, which are endemic to Zanzibar. About 20 years ago, the monkeys were considered to be in danger of extinction. This trend has since reversed due to the conservation project. About 6000 red colobus monkeys are residing in Jozani Forest. After visiting the red colobus, you will walk to the Pete-Jozani Mangrove Boardwalk. It entwines through coral thicket vegetation, mangrove forest and across a creek. You walk through the mangrove forest, which is extremely crucial to Zanzibar's ecosystems, providing a habitat for many lizards, snakes and birdlife, as well as preventing coastal erosion.
