Explore Jozani Forest: Zanzibar’s Green Heart and Wildlife Haven!
Jozani Forest, located in the heart of Zanzibar, is the island’s only national park and a must-visit destination for nature lovers. Known for its lush greenery, diverse wildlife, and serene walking trails, Jozani Forest offers a refreshing escape into the wild. At Bright Beach Tour & Safari, we guide you through the wonders of this enchanting forest, ensuring a memorable experience with nature.
🐒 Meet the Red Colobus Monkeys
Jozani Forest is home to the endangered Zanzibar Red Colobus Monkeys, found nowhere else in the world. These friendly primates are known for their striking appearance and playful behavior. You can watch them swing from trees, feed on leaves, and interact in their natural habitat.
The monkeys are accustomed to visitors, allowing for great photo opportunities. However, our guided tours emphasize respectful and safe interactions, ensuring the well-being of these amazing creatures.
🌿 Discover the Mangrove Boardwalk
Beyond the forest, Jozani offers a unique mangrove boardwalk experience. The wooden paths lead you through a lush mangrove forest where you can learn about the vital role these plants play in the ecosystem. The mangroves serve as nurseries for many marine species and help protect the coastline.
Walking along the boardwalk, you might spot crabs, small fish, and even exotic birds. The calm environment, combined with the gentle rustling of mangrove leaves, creates a peaceful atmosphere.
🚶 Nature Trails and Birdwatching
Jozani Forest offers guided nature walks through its trails, where you can explore a variety of plants and wildlife. The forest is rich with medicinal plants, and guides often share insights into how locals use them for traditional remedies.
Birdwatchers will also enjoy Jozani, as the forest hosts species such as the Fischer’s Turaco, African Pygmy Kingfisher, and many more. The mix of forest sounds, fresh air, and scenic views makes the trails a fantastic experience for visitors of all ages.

Jozani Forest is not only a tourist attraction but also a hub for conservation efforts.
