oted by international magazines and newspapers as the finest seaside resort in Kenya, Kiwayu Safari Village is set to steal your heart.
Kiwayu Safari Village is located on the Kenya mainland in the most remote coast of the Kiunga Marine Reserve about 30 miles north of Lamu Island, in a breathtakingly beautiful bay opposite Kiwayu Island.
Nestling amid the mainland dunes, the oasis of Kiwayu Safari Village lies to the north of a sheltered lagoon facing the island of Kiwayu. There are few places in our world, which can boast such total seclusion, visited only by fishermen, the dhow that still come to collect sweet water and the occasional sports fisherman in search of the magnificent marlin or sail fish.
How to get here
From Nairobi
A daily air service operates from Nairobi’s Wilson airport by Safarilink limited. The flight goes via Lamu. Private air charters can also be arranged. The flight is about 1 hour 50mins.
