It is a beautiful and peaceful village on the Kenya Coast, nestled between pristine beaches and lush tropical forest. Watamu has remained a haven of peace and tranquility and is still one of the coast's most undeveloped and natural areas. Activities:

Elementaita
Elementeita is derived from the Masaai word muteita, meaning "dust place", a reference to the dryness and dustyness of the area, especially between January and March. Elementaita is a wonderous wilderness to visit anytime during the year, but I recommend visiting during the dry season.

Loita Hills & Nguruman Escarpment
Nguruman Escarpment is an escarpment in southern Kenya. The escarpment is around 50 kilometers long and elongated in N-W direction. Its northern edge approximately 120 km southwest of Nairobi, while the southern edge is near the Tanzanian border, at the northwestern corner of Lake Natron. Deep in the heart of Southern Kenya’s Maasai land in a catchment of faulted volcanic rocks is the unearthly Lake Magadi. This 104 sq km alkaline lake is an example of a “saline pan” and is the most mineral-rich of the soda lakes. It is almost entirely covered by a thick encrustation of soda that supports many bird species and gives the landscape a weird lunar appearance completely surrounded by vast natural salt flats.

The Mara through Fresh Eyes
It is rated as one of the world's most spectacular natural events - every year over a million wildebeest, zebra and antelope migrate clockwise around the Serengeti/Masai Mara ecosystem, taking in two different countries and making time for birthing, courting and mating on the way.
But the trouble with the Wildebeest Migration is that if you get your timing wrong, you will end up gazing out over a wildebeest-less savannah and wondering where all the animals went. You need to work out where to go and when. World class safari guide Richard Knocker put it best when he said "the Migration is not a continuously forward motion. They go forward, backwards, and to the sides, they mill around, they split up, they join forces again, they walk in a line, the spread out, or they hang around together. You can never predict with certainty where they will be; the best you can do is suggest likely timing based on past experience, but you can never guarantee the Migration one hundred percent."

The Majestic Ngong’ Hill
These are peaks in a ridge located southwest of Nairobi along the Great Rift Valley. The name Ngong’ Hills comes from the phrase "enkong'u emuny" which means rhinoceros spring. This name derives from a spring located near Ngong’ Town. The hills are only 22km from Nairobi city centre and trekking through them takes an average person only 4-5 hours.
