August is one of the final months of cooler weather, making it ideal for beach outings. By this time of year, the winds have started to calm down.
Long days at the beach are back, and if you’re interested in observing small wildlife, the Jozani Forest offers some unique species to explore.
In this forest, you can find the red colobus monkey, known for its striking red fur and playful behaviour, bush pigs and around 40 different bird species.
Remember, when spending time at the beach, keep hydrated and protect your skin with SPF.
With the calmer weather, take advantage of activities like diving, surfing, and even spa treatments.
