Overview: Gentle and relaxed, Lamu is Kenya's oldest inhabited town, and the unhurried way of life has changed little over the centuries. Part of the Lamu Archipelago, Lamu town is reached by boat from the mainland. The narrow, winding streets are crowded with pedestrians, markets, vendors and donkeys. Lovely old Arab houses feature intricately carved doors and lintels and mosques decorate the streets of one of the last remaining Swahili towns from a civilisation that used to be the cultural force along the coast. A Dhow trip is mandatory and sailing around the little islands or to the beautiful beaches is a memorable experience.
