Mida Creek Dhow Cruise

We'll meet at the Blue Bay IGV Hotel at the indicated time and from there, we'll drive to the local harbour.

Upon arrival at the dock, we'll board a dhow, a traditional Arab sailing boat. We will start sailing along Mida Creek, a reserve area characterized by crystal clear waters, mangroves, and sandy islands.

During the tour, we will experience the African sunset while observing the diverse fauna of Mida Creek, including flamingos, yellow-billed storks, and large egrets. With some luck, we might spot the African Osprey, known for its wingspan of 150 to 167 centimetres.

The dhow ride includes drinks and canapés throughout the trip. We'll sail back to the departure dock and return you to the meeting point in Watamu, with an estimated arrival 2 hours after pickup.
