Snorkel the marine park, kayak Mida Creek at sunset and explore the Gedi ruins from a boutique beach hotel.
Watamu is quieter than Diani and better for snorkelling. Its marine park protects coral gardens a short boat ride from the beach, and the mangroves of Mida Creek are best explored by kayak or canoe at sunset. The 13th-century Gedi ruins are ten minutes away, and Malindi’s seafront restaurants are a short drive north.
