Jozani-Chwaka Bay National Park

Today we moved to the east side of the island, to the village of Jambiani. But first, we stopped by the island's only national park, the Jozani-Chwaka Bay National Park. Most of the park is tropical forest, many trees that are similar to those in Brazil (like guava, palm trees, and others), but there are also mahogany trees that I didn’t know. The park also has a small mangrove area. It’s home to the largest population of the endemic monkeys of the Zanzibar Archipelago, the Red Colobus monkeys.
After our adventure in the forest, we arrived at Jambiani Beach. It’s a village on the east side of the island, where lots of kitesurfers come to practice the sport. Here, for the first time in my life, we’re staying in a resort. I’m not sure if I like it yet—it’s really different from what I’m used to.Weiterlesen
