Depart in the morning from your Beach Hotel or residence to Mwaluganje Elephant Sanctuary. Enjoy a mid-morning African Spice Game Drive en-route to Mwaluganje Elephant Camp for lunch. Mwaluganje is situated in Kwale, South Coast of Mombasa and is Kenya's first community Wildlife Sanctuary.

 

Until recently the, land was occupied by the local Duruma people who farmed and hunted there. This is a locally initiated and managed effort to develop tourism as an alternate to farming.

 

Mwaluganje is Elephant country and has superb opportunities to see Kenya's 'big tuskers'. Elephants are the main attraction and there are plentiful. Mwaluganje is a historical bull area where independent elephant bulls grow in preparation for the demanding life of breeding males.

 

There are plenty of other attractions like large mammals including some very friendly Zebras, Warthog, Bushbuck, Waterbuck, Baboons, Colobus and Sykes Monkeys. The landscape in Mwaluganje is diverse and ranges from the dry baobab bush land to moist deciduous forest on the hills and riverine forest along the streams.

 

Mwaluganje Elephant Sanctuary has another attraction; presence of an endemic cycad that looks like a primitive palm tree makes Mwaluganje floristically unique. For wild flower lovers, this is paradise when the cliffs turn pink with blooming desert roses at the end of the rainy season (November) and when most plants flower at the start of the rainy season.

 

There is height diversity of butterflies resulting from the diverse habitats - along the Manolo River you will see species typical of Savannah and semi-arid country. This is also a bird watchers' haven with some of the most spectacular birds of prey such as the monkey-eating crowned eagle and the palm nut vulture.
