Malindi

MALINDI AND WATAMU

Along a coastline of fishing villages, buzzing Malindi offers not only beautiful beaches, but a number of restaurants, bars and nightclubs. The northern beaches of Malindi attract many wind and kite surfers and are considered amongst the best surfing spots in Kenya. Since the sand and water can have a reddish colouring due to the proximity to the red-soiled Tsavo National Park, many beach holidaymakers prefer the beaches south of Malindi, at Watamu. Watamu area features the Arabuko-Sokoke rain-forest (famous for butterflies and the Arabuko-Sokoke owl), the Gede Ruins and the Watamu Marine National Park & Reserve. The park is part of a complex of marine and tidal habitats along the Kenya’s north coast with rich and diverse bird life, fish, turtles and dugongs. Visitors can enjoy the white sandy beaches, snorkeling, water skiing, windsurfing and glass bottomed boat tours. Malindi is an hour's flight from Nairobi and two hours by road from Mombasa.
