Kirui Island

[4] In addition to mangroves that encircle the south, west, and north sides, Kirui Island Marine Reserve is the largest and features a sizable percentage of real land vegetation.

There are numerous land animal and plant communities that exist and that merit scholarly attention (beyond the purview of this study).

Local women traditionally visit the famous octopus harvesting spot in the lower intertidal of the extended zone during spring low tides.

[6] The northeast also has a large intertidal zone, primarily because of the creek's (river flow) influence, which artificially creates a Bay that extends southward.

At Ras Gomani, a location outside the borders of the Kirua Island Marne Reserve, excellent coral reefs were seen.

[7] Wadigo originally lived on Kirui Island, but most of them have now relocated to Kijiru and Ndumbani villages in Moa Ward of Mkinga District.
