- Endemic Zanzibar red colobus
- Guided forest walk
- Mangrove boardwalk
- Zanzibar's only national park
Jozani-Chwaka Bay is Zanzibar’s only national park and the stronghold of the endemic Zanzibar red colobus monkey, which is readily seen on a short guided forest walk. The visit also includes a mangrove boardwalk through coastal wetland.
It is an easy half-day from Stone Town or the east-coast beaches.
