Activities in Watamu

  1. Deep-Sea Fishing

    If you want to ape the fish-wrestling antics of Ernest Hemingway, Deep-Sea Fishing is possible at Ocean Sports Hotel and Hemingway's (high season, up to four anglers per boat). People are a little more environmentally sensitive now than in old Ernie's day - tag and release is standard procedure.

  2. Aqua Ventures

    With the marine park just offshore, diving is understandably popular. Aqua Ventures, at Ocean Sports Hotel, offers guided dives in the marine park and an open-water PADI dive course. The best time to dive and snorkel is between October and March. Avoid diving from June to August because of rough seas and poor visibility.

  3. Tewa Caves

    Dive trips to the Tewa Caves at the mouth of Mida Creek are popular, where a group of giant rock cod loiter menacingly at the bottom.
