| ABOUT
KIPUNGANI EXPLORER : |
 Perched
on the edge of Kipungani Bay, where the protected mangroves of
Kipungani Creek meet the end of a deserted 14-kilometre beach on
the southwestern tip of Lamu Island, Kipungani is the ultimate
dream destination for those seeking a true desert island
holiday. As well as all the usual aspects of coastal relaxation
- sun, sand, sea-sports and spectacular seafood - Kipungani
offers a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in a coastal
culture unchanged for centuries. The property has an extremely
close bond with the people of neighbouring Kipungani Village,
who will show you their ancient boat-building and mat-weaving
techniques, take you fishing or prawn-netting in the remote
Dadori Nature Reserve, or show you their model education and
health facilities - all built with the support of Kipungani and
her guests. |
