NaiSabah Dhow

Kenya, Lamu

Venture the Kenya's beautiful coastline and its Lamu Archipelago onboard the NaiSabah, a 75ft traditional dhow. Originally classed as an Omani liveaboard dhow, the vessel has been fastidiously restored and repurposed for ocean exploration. Watch as the world floats by, spend ample time swimming in the gloriously warm waters of the Indian Ocean, and embark on excursions.

While it was designed to sleep eight people in three air-conditioned cabins, enjoy a unique opportunity to spend a night on deck under the stars. Two of the cabins feature double beds and the third features comfortable bunk accommodation, including hot showers and flushing toilets. A lovely crew made up of local experts who know the area are helmed by a superb captain and ready to share their knowledge of hidden gems and top spots in the area.

With a tender accompanying the boat, the opportunity for activities and excursions are seemingly endless; head over to numerous beaches for picnics, swimming, or simply lounging, try a variety of watersports, and explore land on nature walks and stunning hikes. Embrace the slow life meandering through shops in Lamu, weaving with local women, and watching striking sunsets. From the boat, watch dolphins frolic in the water and admire birds as they flit by.
