Walking on Water: The Magical Mangrove Boardwalk of Jozani

Across the road from the monkey sanctuary lies the beautiful Pete-Jozani Mangrove Boardwalk. It is a stunning wooden bridge raised above a unique saltwater forest.

  • ​Natural Shield: Mangrove trees protect Zanzibar’s coastline from big ocean waves and soil erosion.
  • ​Breathing Roots: Look down to see specialized roots sticking out of the mud like snorkels to breathe air. Small crabs and baby fish love hiding here.
  • ​Peaceful Atmosphere: It is quiet, serene, and perfect for bird watching or escaping the midday sun.
  • ​Photo Spot: The symmetry of the wooden boardwalk makes this one of the most popular Instagram spots on the island.
