Watamu Green Hotels should mean a stay that respects turtle nesting and the marine park, including the stretch associated with Local Ocean Conservation.
On the tour side, green means life jackets, licensed guides, and boats that are not racing jet skis through the park. The kayak operators who do this properly insure the trip and explain the mangrove trees instead of treating the creek as a racetrack. Ask the operator which base they trust. We do not audit hotel green badges.
Packages that match Watamu Green Hotels: Day Trip — Tsavo East National Park, Full-Day Safari Blue with Snorkelling and Dolphins, Malindi, Robinson Island and Marafa Hell's Kitchen. Ask which park or marine fees sit outside the starting price.
A full day from the north coast into Tsavo East, the dry park tied to the man-eaters of Tsavo. Plan on eleven to twelve hours, with elephants more reliable than any cat.
