About

The Pete-Jozani Red Colobus Conservation Area is the community-managed visitor entrance to Jozani-Chwaka Bay National Park, Zanzibar's only national park, near Pete village in the Kusini district of Unguja. Originally protected as a forest reserve from the 1960s and formally gazetted as a national park in 2004, the roughly 50 km² park is one of the last strongholds of the endangered, endemic Zanzibar red colobus monkey (Piliocolobus kirkii), with a population estimated at around 1,000 individuals, alongside groundwater forest, mangroves, and coastal thicket habitat. The park operates a 50/50 revenue-sharing model with surrounding communities, including through the Jozani Environmental Conservation Association (JECA), and entrance-fee income supports local schools and health clinics.
