A year in Watamu, month by month.
- Kaskazi, the north-east monsoon
- December to March. Hot, dry, a flat and glassy sea: snorkelling season in the marine park.
- The long rains
- April and May. Short, heavy showers, green everywhere, few visitors, better rates.
- Kusi, the south-east monsoon
- June to September. Cooler and breezier: whale and kitesurfing season.
