Overview
Nakupenda means "I love you" in Swahili. The sandbank rises out of the turquoise water at low tide, so the start time changes daily. We confirm it when you book.
You swim, snorkel and walk the sand while the crew grills fresh fish and prepares fruit under a shade awning. It is a favourite with couples and families.
