Mida Creek Nature Camp

The staff were excellent and the location was very peaceful and exceptionally reasonable pricing for Watamu

We leave something of ourselves behind when we leave a place, we stay there, even though we go away. And there are things in us that we can find again only by going back there. Such a gem in today's modernity

We spent four days over Christmas at the nature camp - it is so peaceful, truly in nature, surrounded by trees and the houses with palm roofs - all built by Harrison and team! We were only a few mins on foot to Mida Creek where we could see flamingoes every day. We ate there several times and the food was really great. We loved going to the creek at sunset with Daniel and Jonathon in a dug out canoe, we learnt so much about mangroves and it was possibly one of the most beautiful, peaceful places we've ever been. We also were treated to a Giriama dance on Christmas eve which was so amazing. The kids were so talented and put our dancing to shame when we got up to join! The best bit however is the team. Harrison is so welcoming and really takes care of his guests, and has a lovely family. Philip is so so kind and friendly, and a great driver! Recommend to future guests to bring power banks and also that there's a local shop 5 mins away for water and snacks for those that need.

Swahili foods

The place is REALLY good for someone who wants to experience being in nature and the local culture. Close to the creek and Harrison has many activities planned so be sure to plan for them. The food you order at the place is sweet and local . The portions are really much so don't order if you can not finish as a solo traveller.

No readily available electricity in the rooms to charge your devices so be sure to plan accordingly.

Hands down one of the nicest campsites I’ve ever been to and that is not only thanks to the incredible location (just 10 min walking to Mida Creek), but also to the owner and the whole family living nearby. I felt really taken care of, not just as the client, but as a guest that is most welcome there. The owner explained how everything around the camp works, offered many interesting activities to do around (canoe trips, elephant watching, etc) and always went out of his way to ensure we have everything we need. I have booked a camping spot, but I got a free upgrade to the treehouse thanks to his kind offer! The campsite has great and clean facilities and is conveniently located to the main road going to Gede and Watamu both by matatu and mototaxi. There is also breakfast and dinner available upon request which you can enjoy in an AWESOME spot right next to the creek, which is very peaceful with almost no people around - the serenity of this place is one best things about it. I honestly can’t recommend this place enough if you are looking for something close to nature away from the tourist traps. It was a perfect base to explore the surroundings and it definitely deserves more recognition!
