Why go
Donkeys, carved doors, and a dhow. It is a different finish from a Diani hotel.
What you come for
An old town and a reef, after the safari rather than instead of it.
Where to go
- The baseA town house or a beach hotel outside the old streets. The name can change before anything is paid.
- The pairingThe Mara or Laikipia first. Diani if you want an easier beach with a road.
When to go
When to go
July to October and January to March. The long rains are a poor time for a dhow.
Travel advice
Before you travel
Lamu is malarial. Dress conservatively in the town. The airstrip is on Manda, a boat away.
