How to choose Watamu excursion packages
Watamu excursion packages are grouped by trip length so you can compare a focused half day on the reef with a longer full day on the water. Half day suits guests who want snorkeling, glass-bottom viewing and a clear morning or afternoon window. Full day suits guests who want more reef time and a stronger chance for dolphin watching when conditions allow.
Half day and full day marine park trips on this page are shared boat trips with other guests. Dhow trips and packages sold as a private or group charter are private to your group. Every package is booked through Watamu Marine Excursions Bookings. Open the package details first, then move to booking when you are ready to lock the date, guest count and residency category.
Watamu excursion prices and what affects your total
Watamu excursion prices help you compare options quickly. Standard half day and full day marine park trips include the Kenya Wildlife Service park entry fee. Specialty trips state on their page whether park entry is included. Your live estimate on the booking form then calculates the total for adults, children and optional hotel pickup inside Watamu. The package price covers your place on the boat, or the whole boat when the package is sold as private.
Half day packages
Half day Watamu excursion packages work well for families, couples and guests who want a boat trip without a full marine day. They keep the schedule clear and leave room for beach time later.
Full day packages
Full day packages give longer boat time and more flexibility for reef stops, snorkeling and wildlife windows. Choose this when marine park time is the main highlight of your day in Watamu.
What Is Usually Included
