Dhow boat sailing is a popular activity along the coast of Kenya such as at Lamu Island or down Mida Creek in Watamu. Dhows are traditional sailing boats that have been used for centuries for fishing, transportation, and trade in East Africa and the Indian Ocean.
Sailing on a dhow boat provides a unique opportunity to experience the traditional way of life on the island, as well as to explore the stunning coastal waters and nearby islands. The dhow boats are usually operated by local fishermen or sailors, who are experienced in navigating the waters and can provide insights into the local culture and traditions.
The dhow sailing experience typically involves a leisurely sail along the coast, with stops at secluded beaches and coves for swimming and snorkelling. Enjoy freshly caught fish, cooked and prepared on the boat for lunch. Visitors can also explore nearby islands, such as Manda Island, which is home to the ancient ruins of Takwa, a Swahili settlement dating back to the 16th century.
