The swarming of the shops gives life to the footpaths in the town center where it is fun to shop for articles of craftsmanship and interior designs or give vent to the creativity with help of tailors or the shoemakers who do their best to reproduce fantasies and ideas.
White and golden beaches are the ideal places to spend your days on the beach, to practice snorkeling, diving, kite surfing, horse-riding, jogging alternatively exploring the beauty of the Indian ocean in a boat.
The surroundings of Malindi are a true and proper taste of the African landscape where it is possible to sightsee local villages, different ethnicities and to live from nearby the contact with the nature of Arabuko Sokoke, at the archaeological site of Gede Ruins, on the River Banks of River Sabaki, at the lagoons of Watamu or Mambrui.
