Watamu

Watamu is Kenya’s premier eco-tourism coastal jewel, offering a laid-back, bohemian alternative to busier beach destinations. Situated on a pristine peninsula along the Indian Ocean, this charming fishing village is surrounded by the protected waters of the Watamu Marine National Park, creating a world-class sanctuary where powdery white sands meet vibrant coral gardens.Famous for its unique geographical formations, Watamu features iconic offshore coral islands that create calm, crystal-clear swimming lagoons at low tide. It is a legendary hotspot for marine conservation, where your clients can visit local turtle watch programs or spot resident schools of dolphins. Beyond the beach, the destination offers incredible diversity: travellers can explore the ancient, emerald canopy of the Arabuko Sokoke Forest—home to rare elephants and endemic birds—or wander through the haunting 13th-century stone ruins of Gedi. For clients who crave a blend of barefoot luxury, exceptional marine encounters, rich Swahili history, and deep-sea fishing adventures, Watamu offers an enchanting, untouched coastal escape.
