The area contains a mixture of types of habitat rain forest , cloud forest , grassland , mangrove s, and swamp . This coast has a tropical climate with summer rains and high humidity all year round. Flora This diverse ecoregion can be divided into three different areas according to their type of habitat. North of the Cuanza River is a forest of tall trees surrounded by tall grasses, with areas of mangrove and swamp on riverbanks especially in the river estuaries. At higher altitudes on the western ridge patches of cloud forest , which shelter a rich variety of Endemism endemic plants and animals. Finally, on the coastal strip and the low slopes of the escarpment south of the Cuanza there are dry woodlands and wooded grasslands. See Central African mangroves for a description of the coastal swamps .
