==Summary==

It consists of a large base with an operable gate, controlled by a switch which either team can open, but not close. The gate is a main part of objective based games, as a [[M12 ~~Force Application Vehicle~~|Warthog]] or other vehicles can be driven through the open gate directly into the base.

Zanzibar is also host to one of the most destructive and interactive areas in ''Halo 2'' multiplayer. The Base that houses the generator sub-systems has two shutter windows to the left of the building, the supports to which can be shot off or hit off with a melee attack and used to prevent fire from entering the second level of the base from the outside. The concrete blocks next to the two forward firing machine guns can be blown off,and the large pillars on the first floor of the base next to the flag spawn can be chipped away by gunfire as well. The windows can be blown out. Also, a couple of the trees on the beach a total of three coconuts can be knocked down and played with.

*At [[E3 2004]], Zanzibar was the first map disclosed to the community in ''Halo 2'' to be revealed to the public, prior to its worldwide release.

*The sign "Camp Froman" is a reference to [[Luke Timmins]], who practiced [[camping]] there.

*Zanzibar is set on the actual island of [[Zanzibar Island|Zanzibar]], an island off the coast of Tanzania, a country in [[Africa]], not too far from present day [[Mombasa]] and the futuristic [[New Mombasa]] in the ''[[Halo]]'' games.

*This level appears in Season 3, 4 and a brief appearance in Season 5 in ''[[Red vs Blue]]'' and the remake Last Resort appears in Reconstruction.

*If you go to the large rock outside the gate on Zanzibar, face it with your back towards the beach and the big wheel, you can see a strange image of what looks to be a creature with a big nose on the rock. Below it is the face of a man wearing glasses. There is also an image of what looks like a UFO on the side of the wall right behind the rock mentioned above. To some it may look like an obscure snake head.
