Lying just off Kenya's far north Coasr is a string of beautiful ocean islands- Lamu, Manda, Pate, Kiwayu and Manda Toto - Known collectively as the Lamu Archipelago. An area of archaeological and Historical interest as well as great natural beauty, these islands are well worth visiting for a more tranquil and away-from-the-crowds Kenya beach holiday, especially when compared to the busier and more developed central and southern parts of the coast.
