04 / 05 · Ancient Swahili town
Step into the mystery of an ancient Swahili settlement.
The remains of a Swahili town set within coastal forest near Watamu, a short drive from Malindi.
Gede's coral-stone mosques, palace and houses date back several centuries and reveal the sophistication of Swahili coastal life.
The site is protected as a national monument, and its shaded forest paths make it a calm and atmospheric place to explore.
