Swahili coastal cooking is built on rice, coconut milk, seafood and spices such as clove and cinnamon, so the island's food culture runs through its markets and kitchens. Zanzibar was the seat of the Omani sultanate and a dhow-trade hub, then united with Tanganyika in 1964 to form Tanzania. The coolest, driest months are June to October, when the kusi wind blows from the southeast. The Zanzibar red colobus monkey is found only on Zanzibar, and the Pemba flying fox only on Pemba.
