Welcome to watamu

one of the TOP 10 BEACHES IN THE WORLD

 

 

 

Situated on the North Coast of Kenya, Watamu is a place unlike any other holiday destination in Kenya or beyond.

The beach itself is a haven for breeding turtles and borders the Watamu Marine Park set up to protect them as well as the countless coral and fish life between the beach and the reef.   The snorkelling and scuba-diving opportunities are not to be missed.

Nature abounds in Watamu.  If it's not the incredible variety of birdlife, it's the monkey population, making their rounds of the coast.  The nights are filled with the sounds of cicadas, bush babies and other night creatures. All over Watamu there is the opportunity to discover more about the local wildlife.  The Arabuko Sokoke Forest, Bio-Ken, Watamu's internationally renowned Snake Farm, The Birdwalk in Mida Creek and Turtle Watch amongst others.
