Things to do in Watamu

Picturesque heaven with pristine white beaches and loads of things to do and see

Watamu is located on a short promontory between the blue lagoon and Watamu Bay, 105 kilometers north of Mombasa and 15 kilometers south of Malindi on Kenya’s Indian Ocean Coast. It’s the ideal place to go when you want to be surrounded by calm blue water, which is ideal for re-energizing and rejuvenating your mind, spirit, and body at any time of year.

Watamu is a popular tourist destination because of its beautiful white-sand beaches. Water sports and diving expeditions are available in the marine park, and visitors can marvel at the immense mangrove forest on Mida Creek, which is home to numerous marine life and rare sea turtles.
