Jozani Forest, Salaam Cave & Mtende Beach Day Trip

This full-day adventure combines Zanzibar’s most famous nature reserve with two of its best-kept secrets. Begin at Jozani Forest, the only place on earth to see the endangered Zanzibar red colobus monkey in the wild. Walk the mangrove boardwalk, then journey south to the mysterious Salaam Cave — a natural limestone cavern with a freshwater pool. Finish at Mtende Beach, a secluded cove framed by rugged cliffs, where turquoise water meets golden sand far from the crowds.
