About This Experience
Join us for an unforgettable boat excursion in Watamu, among crystal-clear waters, marine wildlife, and authentic Kenyan flavors! Departure is at 9:00 AM from outside your hotel. We take a tuk-tuk to Blue Bay, where the boat is waiting to begin our journey. First, we go dolphin watching. Then we head to Watamu Marine Park, where you can swim surrounded by thousands of colorful tropical fish. After snorkeling, we follow the coral reef to Sardegna 2, a small atoll in the middle of the ocean, where a delicious seafood barbecue awaits.
