Our 2 Days/ 1 Night Lamu Island Flying Holiday is a short African beach vacation by air to Lamu Island famous for its wide sandy beaches and crystal clear waters.

 

Lamu town on Lamu Island is best reached by air either directly from Nairobi, Mombasa or Malindi. Manda airport is on an island opposite the main village necessitating a short boat/ ferry ride. Once here there is no need for transport (other than boats), as everything is a stone's throw away, and the windy pathways are only just wide enough to walk down.

 

Lamu is a place to chill out and relax. Leave the mobile and laptop behind and immerse yourself in a medieval peace only punctuated by the braying of donkeys and the call to prayer from the many mosques on the island. You can explore the Lamu archipelago by dhow.

 

A dhow is a traditional Arab sailing vessel with one or more lateen sails. It is primarily used along the coasts of the Arabian Peninsula, India, and East Africa. Dhow trips are the ultimate experience on a trip to Lamu. They are relatively inexpensive and you can go as far as Manda Island, Takwa Ruins or Matondoni.

 

Dhow sailing in Lamu Island will give you the most wonderful experience. A romantic sunset cruise or a day excursion combining historical ruins and snorkeling, a unique experience of sleeping on a luxurious dhow, savoring a fresh caught fish on the beach.
