Kenya is known as a wildlife tourism hub and safari destination. Other than these gems, breathtaking waters besprinkle the Kenyan landscape giving both the coast and hinterland immense beauty. These waters are endowed with islands that bewitch with beauty and the promise of adventure.
Islands on the Kenyan coast are more known and adored by people than the ones on the inland waters. As such, many inland islands remain highly hidden from sojourners whose eyes only skim the surface of the Kenyan map. Bearing that in mind, we are voyaging across the waters to bring Kenya’s best-kept secrets to the light of dawn.
Welcome to #VisiwaVyetu, a story series that seeks to unearth the becoming of Kenyan islands: the people, the myths, and the legends behind the lands that grew out of water.
