Go to Lamu, When You Just Need a Place to Rest

The Northern Kenya Coast...Lamu Island.

It's an old Port, an old Town, a Tropical Island...
Timeless Beaches and White Sand.

Today it is best known for its Beaches.
Perhaps a little isolated...which makes it a good place to rest

(Sometimes when people use the word "just" they think it means "only".
That is Not what I mean....There are other things to do.)

It's a place that's 'Quaint', with dhows and old architecture-

The history goes back much farther.

There is a mix of culture: Swahili, and Arab traders.
Spend some time with the local people there.

As a port, it was once a center for slave trade.
You'll find Mosques and Museums.

Since there are No Cars -but many donkeys- you fly to Manda Island and go by boat.

You can see the Old Town and stay there.

The main beach is at Shela- a beach village on the island. You can also stay there.

Go to the Beach and visit The Sea Turtles, The Dolphins.
Go Fishing....

or just swim and walk on the beach.

Hear the waves roll and see that magnificent hue at sunrise of another new day.

If you're more inclined to a livelier place consider Malindi and the Coral Reefs
