The white sands of Watamu Bay and its crystal waters form Kenya's finest stretch of beach. Vasco de Gama passed this way and erected a tower on the headland to mark his progress. It is an area of great beauty and interest; there are coral reefs to marvel at, the ruins of ancient Gede to be explored, Marlin and Sailfish to be fought and, of course, Hemingways Resort in which to be indulged. There are 78 luxury bedrooms and suites within earshot of the surf, all having views of the activities of Hemingways deep sea fishing fleet. There is also a bar dedicated to the master himself in which many a tale is told. And yet, as many who have been to the resort will tell you, one of the principal attractions is the food; it is inspired and ranks among the best in the world. Add to this, the impeccable service, the water sport and fitness facilities and the legion opportunities for big game safaris and you have all the ingredients for a memorable encounter with Africa.
