Days 1 - 5: Lamu Island

Rather than flying straight home, why not proceed to the beach by connecting onto the afternoon scheduled flight to Lamu with Air Kenya? Just over an hour later you will land at the Manda airstrip and be met by a representative of Forodhani House who will transfer you across the bay to Lamu Island and to your home for the next for five nights.

Directly on the beach of Shella, Forodhani House is well placed to enjoy all the water based activities available during your holiday: swimming, sailing, diving, water skiing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, kite surfing, fishing ... it's right there, on your doorstep, ideal for both adults and children.

We also suggest to go at least once to Manda Island, just opposite on the other side of the water, to see the hatching of baby turtles and watch as the intrepidly entef the sea ... an incredible experience! Overall, you will be amazed by the exuberance of fauna and flora. From September to May, it is just the season to go swimming with dolphins. From July to December, it's time for whales – just amazing! It is also a wonderful fishing spot ... small, at the foot of the house and in the bay off shore: tuna, barracuda and the legendary swordfish!

During your stay, you can dive around the coral island Manda Toto or around the Kinika rock, it’s a great spectacle, thousands of bright fish! You can also embark on a "dhow" right on the beach in front of the house for a wonderful sunset cruise through the maze of mangroves, or you could leave for the day to sail around Lamu Island by boat with picnic. Relaxation, tranquillity and wonder guaranteed!
