For those who want to venture into the bush there are numerous safari options available from Watamu. The famous Tsavo East National Park lies only 100km west of Watamu (two hours by road or 30 minutes in a light aircraft) and boasts the full complement of animal and bird species as well as an incredible variety of landscapes and scenery.

Ocean
Sports Resort is situated in one of the most unspoiled
underwater reserves in the world. Since fishing is not allowed
in the Watamu National Marine Park, it is a safe haven and
breeding ground for numerous species of fish. At Ocean Sports we have a professional PADI accredited dive company on site to organise and oversee your diving trips. Our dive instructors have local knowledge unrivalled by anyone else on the coast and are able to arrange the best dives to suit your level and requirements. |

There are a number of popular cycling routes from Watamu. We recommend either cycling to the Mida Bird Hide or to the Arabuko Sokoke Forest. Both trips weave paths through charming coconut groves and mango plantations. You will be accompanied by a ‘Bike Cycle Trail Leader’ from the British Cycling Club. |
