LUXURY PRIVATE WILDLIFE SANCTUARY IN KENYA’S TSAVO The Taita Hills Wildlife Conservancy derives its name from the surrounding clusters of hills and is an integral part of the Eastern Arc forests classified as an biodiversity hotspot. The conservancy covers an area of 28,000 acres of mosaic habitat where the plant physiognomy is riverine forest, savanna wood and grassland. The vegetation formation is usually dense, stratified and always dominated by Acacia /Commiphora trees and may appear to be evergreen in wet areas such as in the central lowlands of the sanctuary. The sanctuary straddles the Southern Tsavo West National Park and is an important dispersal area and migrating corridor for wildlife between Tsavo East National Park and Tsavo West National Park and making it a highly valued tourism recreational area and of ecological importance. The topography is generally mountainous that offers breath taking landscape views of the Kilimanjaro, Pare, and Uluguru mountains
I stayed 3 days in Lumo Community Wildlife Sanctuary and Taita Hills wildlife sanctuary. The landscape of the park is beautiful and varied; it is mainly savannah with some bushy areas surrounding waterholes. The fauna is exceptionnal. In the sanctuary park, during safaris,we have seen: - a female cheetah with 4 5-months old cubs, that were very playful. - female lions with cubs - black-backed jackals - huge families of elephants with a lot of babies - other mammals, e.g.: zebras, buffalos, waterbucks, hartebeests, warthogs… - a lot of birds. Taken together, I definetely recommend to visit Lumo Community Wildlife Sanctuary and Taita Hills wildlife sanctuary

The adventure starts from the “wobbly” boardwalk as you balance yourself as you walk till the end, this was such a thrill Board your canoe here and the calm ocean gently rocks you to the creek, if the tide & water level is low you can get off at garden of eden to catch the sunset as the water turns to a shimmery gold, such a sight to behold! If you’re adventurous you can kayak, stand up paddle boarding or float around the mangroves in the creek experiencing it all and hopefully see some birds hunting in the shallow waters. We used a local guide who was very informative & affordable.

Such serenity, simply breathtaking. Great and expansive National park with many beautiful birds, large and small, and other land animals such as elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, lions, heartbeets, dikdiks, gazelles etc. It's worth the visit. Those drives in the park are thrilling if not therapeutic! Highly recommended.

Local Ocean Conservation is a private, not for profit organisation committed to the protection of Kenya's marine environment. We love our local ocean and we use practical conservation, community involvement and development, education, research and campaigning to promote the sustainable use of Kenya's marine resources. Watamu Turtle Watch is our flagship programme. It was started by local residents in 1997 to protect nesting sea turtles. Now it consists of our Nest Monitoring and Protection programme, By Catch Net Release Programme, and specialist Rehabilitation Centre for sick and injured sea turtles. The combination of these programmes enables us to make a real difference in ensuring the future of endangered sea turtles.
A beautiful experience which educates you on the importance of conservation. A must visit while in Watamu gives you the opportunity to learn more about conservation of turtles. Local Ocean Conservation do a fantastic job collaborating with the local community and schools to educate them on the importance of conservation bringing out a positive impact. They also give you an opportunity to adopt a turtle and this was an opportunity I did not miss out on :-)!
