From Zanzibar we went back to Dar es Salaam for a night, before heading further up the coast. Our first stop was in Twiga (Northern Tanzania) at a place called Peponi. Owned by an old English expat, it was one of the nicest places we’ve visited and we spent two days hanging out with other overlanders, swimming, snorkeling and relaxing.
We then made our way across the border to Tiwi and later Malindi in Southern Kenya. Malindi (Watamu) is a massive marine reserve, and with the local park rangers on strike we took the opportunity to do some free snorkelling. It was quite an amazing experience with thousands of extremely colourfull (and even more iniquisitive little fish), coral reefs, sting-rays, and well - pretty much everything else you would see in a nature documentary...
