Half day · Gede, Kilifi County
Gede Ruins
A half-day inland from Watamu — a lost Swahili town and East Africa's largest coastal forest.
About This Trip
This is a captivating half-day historical and nature tour located just a 15-minute drive from the heart of Watamu. This mysterious, medieval Swahili-Arab walled city was built entirely from coral stone and earth in the 12th century, only to be completely abandoned in the 17th century for reasons that still baffle historians.
