The traffic of Nairobi made us headache. Traffic jam everywhere, but outside the city is good enough. Fortunately, many tourist destination outside the city so we can relax and far from the busy city.
Mombasa is a bag of mixed feelings the weather is great, driving is a nightmare especially with public vehicles they do not care about other road users. Did visit Malindi not so so great, Diani I could live there forever and back in north coast average the water levels a down stroll down the beach is possible.
The Beach is beautiful and the water is warm and clean. The only thing is a little hard to deal with are these Boys who fallow You around and bother You and do not understand the word NO. It takes a while to learn how to handle them.
iv visited Watamu for the first time in 2009 and since then i found out my lost heaven. this time was my 7th visit. Watamu is just a paradise with the nicest people you could ever meet. it is very safe, my Queen and i walk at night from our place to Kalahari club, which is the biggest and the most popular. we also visit the orphanage center (God our father center) to volunteer for serving those adorable children and spend the happiest times there. it is very easy to get in and out of Watamu. like to come from Mombasa or Malindi just take the matatu (those mini buses) and asked to be dropped at Gede stage which is the entrance of Watamu. the only thing i will avoid in the next visit is not to make it short visit. we'll prepare ourselves for longer staying. Watamu is a home
Definitly go to osteria, rosada, pata pata at the oasis mall.. Use a tuk tuk to get around Malindi..you can usually get them on the roadside and they're quite reasonable People here are friendly and if you know Italian as a language, this will definitely be home for you :)
I love this place. It is a smaller tourist venue that those going South towards Mombasa but there is no shortage of activity or points of interest. This place is a cultural mixing bowl and people from all over come here to relax and enjoy the local vibe which is one worth travelling 7K mi. to enjoy. The travel between Mtwapa and Moi Int'l is disrupted by construction at present so I had to give an extra hour transit time to be on the safe side. Mtwapa hasn't yet come under the beach front over-development found to the South and I hope that it stays that way for a few more years.
