Jozani Forest
Jozani Forest’s 44 sq km, about 3% of the whole island, comprise groundwater forest, coastal forest and grassland, as well as mangroves and salt marsh on the coast. It provides a habitat for a wide variety of mammals, birds and butterflies. A walk through this impressive flora and fauna is one of the highlights Zanzibar has to offer. The reserve has excellent nature trails, and our English, French, Spanish, Italian and German speaking guides are well trained and informative.
Prison Island
Prison Island takes approximately 30 minutes to get there by boat from Stone Town. The prison was built on this island in 1893, it was later used as a quarantine hospital. It has a frangipani lined path around the island where the former patients took their evening walks. Apart from the prison ruins you can also see the beautiful peacocks and the giant tortoises,some of which are over 100 years old. It is also a way to see Stone Town from the sea.
