Born out of a passion for Watamu's pristine wilderness, Mkoko Explorers began as one person's vision to share the magic of Mida Creek with the world. In 2024, we launched with a simple belief: that the most meaningful adventures happen when we slow down, connect with nature, and support the communities that call these special places home. Every kayak that paddles through our mangrove channels and every cycle that whisks along our coastal trails tells a story of sustainable tourism done the right way. When you explore with us, you're joining a movement that believes tourism should educate, inspire, and give back to the places and communities we love.
