6.Sunset Mangrove Canoe Tour with Coconut Drink

★★★★★★★★★★3.6 · 8 reviews · 3h 30m · from $20Best value

Sunset canoe through Watamu mangroves, bird spotting, mudskippers and oysters, then coconut or palm wine in Giriama village.

“Cela vaut essentiellement pour l ambiance et les explications sur la mangrove. Ne confondez pas avec une autre proposition méda creek qui démarre au Shark crab restaurant Celle ci démarre d un petit village tout au bout de la baie. Le trajet est assez long depuis watamu et non compris. Le prix du transfert est plus élevé que la visite. Attention aussi à marée basse vous devrez faire un long chemin boueux dans la baie à l aspect lunaire pour retrouver une barque Les chants vous accompagnent souvent et c est le plus de cette expédition”
