About

One of Watamu's most beautiful beaches with powdery white sand, clear turquoise water, and relatively few crowds. The snorkeling is excellent and there are several good beach bars within walking distance.

    This was our favourite beach to swim and relax in, in connection to Baby shark bay... water was super clean, not a lot of people around (also happens to be the low season currently) and felt safe to walk around at night... just make sure to check the tide times as it varies quite greatly... definitely recommend when visiting Watamu!
