Overview of Manda Bay
Hugging the north-western tip of Manda Island, one of the many unspoilt, idyllic islands found in the Lamu Archipelago, is Manda Bay. It lies in calm waters on a long sandy protected beach. For centuries this has been a calling point for the Arab dhow traders, a safe haven where nature is allowed to take its course without the interference of the modern world, and this tranquil ambience permeates the resort.
There is something for everyone at Manda Bay. You can enjoy the comforts and the beautiful setting; relax next to the water or indulge in a massage. If you’re feeling energetic there are water sports such as deep-sea fishing in search of the marlin and sailfish, windsurfing, water skiing and scuba diving, as well as cultural visits and dhow safaris.
