Wasini Island : The Kenyan Dolphin Waters

Ever had a place in your life or a destination that you would consider 'heavenly' or
simply put 'paradise on earth'? I guess I finally found one that does the magic for me ; Wasini Island.
A beautiful coral island located in the south east Indian Ocean
coast of Kenya near Shimoni and 10 km away from Kisite- Mpunguti Marine park, this island has a lot to offer a tourist.
A tour in this area would encompass a great variety of wild adventures in a wild coral
island.
With the scarce local population,wild mangrove forests and practice of eco- tourism, the island is almost intact and perfect for adventure.
Wasini Island is well famed as an excellent place for spotting for dolphins. For the adventure- seeking msafiri, you wouldn't want to miss a chance at snorkeling while having a swim with the dolphins- probably the most intelligent sea creatures. I'd bet this experience is one worth the history books.
If you'd ever want an experience fishing here, there are a lot of sports fishing
vessels that go straight through the
Pemba Channel, and it is a fishing
ground that’s well-known in Kenya,
World IGFA, and All Africa fishing
records with bountiful fish varieties.

Take an adventure walk of its own kind in the coral gardens on
the Western end of the island,
women groups have set up a nature
walk in it. Here you get to view plenty of colourful fishes in the sapphire oceanic waters. The proceeds go toward
Wasini benefactors, including Wasini
students. Here tours are usually packaged prior to the visit to the island hence making
it easier to include all activities in your package. This tour won't take much of your time
so you could make a detour visit in your planned tour. What's more? Clean Sun- kissed empty beaches around it,
definitely an escape from crowded beaches, would
certainly do for a peaceful afternoon.
Finally,
what's a tour to Wasini Island without a visit to the exquisite Charlie Claw's Restaurant?
Get served with finger-licking seafood delicacies at a
fair price here to complete the tour of this paradise.
This is the one island that would beg the question,
'what better place could you ever visit? ' Given a chance,
I would sacrifice all savings just to seize this exhilarating, once in a lifetime experience- seriously , it's worth the praise.
