FUNZI KINAZINI DAY SAFARI 


We offer you an awe-inspiring day excursion, giving you an opportunity to experience both the wildlife of the Kenyan Coast and a slice of African culture.


We pick you up from your hotel and travel south on a road lined with coconut palms, mango trees and the occasional traditional village.


We then get onto our motorized open boats and head towards Ramisi River. Here, as the mangrove forest encroaches closer and closer to your boat,you will have the opportunity to observe the different species of mangrove Trees, get a chance to spot the varied species of birds and see the occasional crocodile.


Our next stop is the sand bank. Every day at low tide a beautiful sandbank


Arises out of the Indian Ocean, about 10 minutes away from Funzi Island by motorboat. The shallow waters surrounding it display an incredible variety of blues and greens and invite you for a short dip or an extended swim, whatever you are in the mood for.


The sandbank offers a truly magical experience to all our guests.


Then you sail on your dhow to Funzi Island, where you will visit the only school on the island, see a medicine man’s workplace, a fisherman’s abode and also be warmly welcomed by the smiling inhabitants, who live as they did hundreds 0f years ago, with no electricity or running water.


After lunch, you will have the time to stroll on our tiny island or stretch out on the Funzi beds. If lucky, you may even see the occasional Monitor Lizard.


You then sail on your dhow to the base camp in Bodo, where your transport awaits to take you back to your hotel.
