Jozani Forest and Mangrove Boardwalk Discovery
Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park is a 50 sq km (19 sq mi) national park of Tanzania located on the paradise island of Zanzibar. It is one of the island's most famous national parks in the world.
It is home to rich flora and fauna, including the popular Zanzibar red colobus monkey, a rainforest species found within the park. Other species found here include the Sykes monkey, bush babies, more than 50 species of butterflies, more than 50 species of birds, and the nocturnal Zanzibar tree hyrax, which has four toes on its front feet and three on its back feet.
The seagrass beds of Chwaka Bay, fringed with mangrove forests, are important breeding grounds for marine organisms, including many open-water fish species. The mangroves are also excellent breeding grounds for birds.
