Kizingo is situated on the north eastern point of this small island, Kizingo is a perfect getaway on a 16 km long soft, sandy beach. Just 20 mins by boat from Lamu Town itself, each of the 8 spacious bandas has sea views, en-suite bathrooms, and a shaded balcony overlooking the ocean. Generally the best months to come are between November and April for the hot, still months with good conditions for snorkelling, swimming with dolphin and fishing. The windier, and cooler months are between May and October when the sailing and body surfing are better.
