Boat Rentals in Watamu

Boat Rentals in Watamu, Kenya coast

Boat Rentals in Watamu almost always mean a boat with a skipper: a dhow for the marine park, a canoe at sunset, or a kayak in Mida Creek.

Bareboat hire is uncommon, and it is a bad idea in the park if you do not know the reefs. Safari Blue is the six-hour version with a snorkel and lunch, about $110. The canoe is the two-hour version, about $22. Ask who drives, whether jackets are on board, and whether park fees are inside the rate.

Packages that match Boat Rentals in Watamu: Sunset Mangrove Canoe with Coconut Drink, Mida Creek Mangrove Kayaking, Full-Day Safari Blue with Snorkelling and Dolphins. Ask which park or marine fees sit outside the starting price.

  • Sunset Mangrove Canoe with Coconut Drink: 2 hours, from $22 per adult.
  • Mida Creek Mangrove Kayaking: 3 hours, from $67 per adult.
  • Full-Day Safari Blue with Snorkelling and Dolphins: 6 hours, from $110 per adult.
