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.

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
