Wasini Island
Located about 76km south of the Likoni ferry crossing, Wasini Island is located in the Shimoni South coast. With its faded white alleyways, Swahili fishing vibe and fat, mottled trees, this tiny island (it's only 5km long) feels like a distant relative of Lamu and Zanzibar. It's ripe with the ingredients required for a perfect backpacker beachside hideaway. Here there are no auto cars, carts, or bicycles. Only footpaths of sharp old coral or sand. Cargo is transported by foot or by wheelbarrow.
