Description
Mida Ecocamp The Camp is nestled in between the Arabuko-Sokoke Forest, the mangrove
coast and local villages. The centre of the camp is a platform bar /
restaurant with scenic views, serving delicious spicy Giriama food cooked on
two fires in a clean tiled kitchen. In the main season there is a choice of
three to four main-courses and two smaller meals.

Mida Ecocamp is a brand new project, that has been built by private
donations to assist a small community on the Kenyan coast to help
themselves. All the profit from the camp will be diverted into further community projects within Mida Creek in sectors as health, schooling and agriculture.

The camp will open a subsidised dispensary, help with families' crippling
schooling-fees and will make sure people can eat on a regular more balanced
diet. On top it creates multiple employment opportunities, opens a market for
local farmers and last, but not least it will help to conserve the threatened
environment of Mida Creek, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

The Giriama food cooked on two fires in a yet very clean tiled kitchen is
delicious and spicy. You can opt for a cold beer or try some of the local mnazi
(coconut-wine).

We have three types of accommodation:
Three traditional built huts, small campsite and a separate campsite for larger
groups and over landers.

There are 7 excursions, that can be undertaken from the camp including
canoe rides to the island opposite.

Another highlight are the Giriama dancers and drummers, that can be booked
for a performance in the camp.
