Ngezi Forest Reserve

Ngezi Forest is located at the northwestern tip of Pemba Island, it is comprised of ancient coastal forest that once covered all of Pemba. The Ngezi Forest Reserve supports a variety of plants and wildlife including some of its own plant species that are unique to the area.

Many of the 27 recorded bird species found on Pemba Island have been seen in Ngezi Forest. Ngezi is also home to the Pemba flying fox, a bat that is unique to Pemba Island.

There is a walking trail from the entrance to Ngezi that winds through the forest canopy and takes about one hour to complete.
