Kenya beach holidays
Lamu Island is an ancient Arabic trading capital lying off the north coast of the country. A spectacular coral reef runs 480km along the palm-fringed coastline of Kenya, while the waters below teem with thriving marine life. The various marine reserves one can visit are a testament to the country’s desire to preserve its underwater wonders against exploitation.
A wonderful diversity of birdlife occupies the mangrove forests and overhanging cliffs, and Kenya’s beaches offer plenty of opportunities for watersports, or for simply relaxing in the sun.
