Wildlife Sanctuary
The owner of this 13.5-acre property together with the owners of four adjoining plots, have come together and built a perimeter wall enclosing their entire five plots. This creates a 60-acre sanctuary of one of the last remaining unspoilt “coral rag” forest areas on the Kenyan coast. There are no separating walls between the plots providing an “open” sanctuary for the existing wildlife and birdlife. A network of perimeter paths, forest paths and small table-and-bench-rest-stops are being put in place at various points to enable residents to enjoy the sanctuary.
