Maziweisland is a very small unvegetated island surrounded by coral reefs located about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) south east of the town of Pangani off the northern coast of Tanzania. Historical records indicate that this island used to be significantly larger and was vegetated with palm trees and other shrubs. Due to local fishermen cutting trees on the island possibly in combination with sea level rise, changing current or weather patterns, and tourist use of the island to snorkel or dive from, the island has experienced significant erosion.

There is a wide diversity of marine species found in and around the island reserves. This includes over 200 species of fish, 35 genera of corals, many types of birds and a number of different sea grasses, algae and sponges. The island used to be a nesting site for endangered green sea turtles. However, their eggs must be deposited above the high tide water line to survive and the entire island is covered with water at certain points because of the severe erosion. While no longer a nesting habitat, sea turtles are still commonly sighted in the surrounding reef.
