Munje Beach: Below Msambweni Beach

Contiguous with Msambweni Beach is the little sung about Munje Beach, a silent coastal village with an empty salubrious beach. It is a great alternative for those looking for a quiet beach away from the more popular sun and sand destinations further north. Munje Beach Villas provides comfortable lodging options. Situated just 30 km south of Ukunda town, these villas are ideal for families, friends, and small groups seeking a quiet getaway. Each two-story villa features four en-suite bedrooms with balconies, two living rooms, dining areas, kitchenettes, and guest cloakrooms. Other living options at the beach include; Aramesh and Pride Rock.

Unique to Munje Beach is the local community dedicated engagement in marine conservation through initiatives like the Munje Co-Management Area (CMA) Plan. By the same token, Tunusuru Conservation Women Group under Munje Beach Management Unit (BMU), established in 2020 amidst the ravaging effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, focuses on rehabilitating the degraded mangrove ecosystem, and diversifying their livelihoods. Being one of the areas with little development and investments within the marine ecosystem, Munje Beach remains to be a rich pool of varied habitats providing ecosystem service for the adjacent communities. These sites offers a rare mix of exploration, conservation, and cultural immersion.

Kenya is renowned for its stunning coastline along the Indian Ocean, offering a variety of beautiful beaches that cater to different preferences – from bustling resorts to quiet, secluded coves and picture-postcard creeks. Diani Beach, known for its powdery white sands and turquoise waters, is, perhaps, the most popular. Yet, each offers a unique experience, in almost always perfect tropical weather.
