Kenya Wild Safari

The beach resorts of Malindi and Watamu in northeastern Kenya are world-renowned for their marine reserves and stunning beaches. Located at the center of a strip of enchanting tropical beaches, the small but exceptionally picturesque town of Malindi offers world-class beach resorts, promising a relaxing ambience to visitors. Further south, the tiny Watamu is a tranquil haven with its beautiful white sand beaches, and fine resorts and guesthouses. Both Malindi and Watamu are known for their rich and diverse marine life.

The Malindi and Watamu Marine National Parks are home to some of the finest scuba diving and snorkeling sites in Africa. Non-divers can also enjoy glass-bottomed boat rides to explore the incredibly rich marine life of the region. Rich in fish population, Malindi also offers excellent conditions for angling, perhaps the best in Africa. Tourists can also visit the nearby Marafa Depression, popularly known as Hell's Kitchen. It's an extensive series of sandstone gorges and sheer gullies, providing a breathtaking sight to visitors. The famous Arabuko Sokoke Forest Reserve, known for its rare birds and mammals, including herds of Elephant, is also worth visiting. One can just walk through the verdant forest, explore the mangroves by boat, or dive on the reef here.

The unique topography of the region, including tidal reefs, beaches, creeks and open ocean, attracts large flocks of terns and gulls among many other species of birds. Over 450 species have been recorded in the region, including some rare and little known species. Among migratory birds, most commonly seen include Osprey, Eurasian Golden Oriole, Bee-eaters, and Spotted Flycatchers. Truly an ornithologist's paradise, the Watamu-Malindi region attracts thousands of nature lovers, adventure seekers, and bird watchers from all corners of the world.
