ACTIVITIES:
Champali camp is ideally situated to explore the mangrove creeks, the many sandy beaches and the greater Marine Reserve beyond. From simply spending days reading in the shade of the trees, to adventuring in unchartered territory, there is something for everyone, children and adults alike.
The 5mile long 'Big Beach' on the eastern side of the island is fantastic for kite flying, long walks, and early morning sunrise yoga .whilst the small beach in-front of the camp from mid-tide onwards is your very own pool of contentment.
Snorkelling is fantastic from Nov-March, on both sides of the island. The Champali team can show you when and where is best.
There are two kayaks available; ideal vessels to quietly explore the mangrove creeks, do a little fishing from, or even to brave out in the open waters. Endless fun for kids too.
For windsurfers, kite-surfers and sailors, enthusiasts have both creek and ocean to choose from with fantastic conditions and reliable wind. Bring your own gear!
For the serious deep-sea fishing enthusiast, the waters off the Kiunga Marine Reserve provide world class angling, and two fully-equipped deep sea fishing boats are locally available for charter.
'Little Toot' based out of Peponi Hotel in Lamu (www.peponi-lamu.com) and 'Cheza' based out of Manda Bay (www.mandabay.com) are highly recommended.
Or bring your own boat! Calm, deep water anchorage is available right in front of camp.
There is no permanent speedboat at Champali. If however you would like to have one during your stay, a speedboat and skipper can be arranged, depending on your requirements.
The picturesque village of Kiwaiyu nearby also warmly welcomes guests and visitors. It is the original epi-centre of the recycled flip-flop crafts which are now sold internationally (see www.uniqueco-designs.com) and visits to the village to see the artisans at work can be arranged once you are there.
Feel free and safe to explore..Karibuni Kiwaiyu. |
