SABAKI RIVER MOUTH BIRDING TOUR
On the Sabaki River Mouth Birding Tour, we shall visit the Sabaki River Mouth. This is a very interesting birding area near Malindi, Kenya. The habitat here is mainly a coastal shoreline, meeting with fresh water coming in through the mighty Sabaki River. The nearby farms and woodlands also host an array of biodiversity. The main attraction here is the water birds; but there will be many more terrestrial species to watch out for.
We shall then return to our hotel, marking the end to our lovely Sabaki River Mouth Birding Tour.
