Getting to Watamu from Mombasa Airport

Watamu is 104–106 km north of Mombasa Airport, approximately 1 hour 45 minutes by private transfer. The route follows the Mombasa–Malindi highway to the Gede/Watamu junction, then through the village to the beach. Air conditioning is recommended for this coastal journey.

About Blue Bay Beach Hotel

Blue Bay Beach Hotel is a comfortable, affordable option on the Watamu seafront, offering clean rooms, a pool, a restaurant, and easy walking access to both the marine park beach and Watamu village. It is a practical base for snorkellers, budget travellers, and those visiting Watamu primarily for turtle watching or the Gede Ruins.

The marine park beach is a 5-minute walk, and the hotel can arrange glass-bottom boat trips, snorkelling equipment hire, and guided excursions to the Gede Ruins (14th-century Swahili city) and Arabuko-Sokoke Forest. Meals at the hotel restaurant are straightforward and good value.

A saloon handles this 104-minute transfer from MBA. It is the most western of the main Watamu hotels and therefore the first reached after the Gede junction turnoff.

What to Do Near Watamu

Watamu sits within the Watamu Marine National Park, offering world-class snorkelling, glass-bottom boat trips, deep-sea fishing, and turtle nesting on the beach from September to March. The Gede Ruins are 15 minutes away, and Arabuko-Sokoke Forest is accessible for birding day trips.
